01 / THE RELEASE AND WHAT FOLLOWS

The latest number is just the start.

A revision can change how earlier months look. Watch brings together the latest observation, revisions to earlier periods, and their effect on 3-, 6- and 12-period averages.

Revisions & replay

Compare a release before and after revision, its first available vintage, and the effect of revisions on the trend.

02 / MAKE IT YOURS

A clear starting point for every question.

See what was known at the time.

Choose a date, explore the available vintages, then export that same view as a CSV. Later revisions stay out of the picture.

History varies by source. For Eurostat, the record starts with the snapshots Watch has retained.

05 / GOOD TO KNOW

Before you start.

Practical tools, with clear boundaries.

Open the full guide
How much history is available?

Collection starts with up to two years of observations where the source provides them. That does not guarantee two years of revision history: ALFRED supplies available vintages; Eurostat and some other series are recorded through Watch snapshots. Gaps remain visible.

Is the data real time?

No. Collection follows each source’s schedule and release windows, with backoff after failures and respect for usage limits. Watch distinguishes the observation period, official publication and collection time. Rates and spreads are not an intraday feed.

Why is some data marked partial?

An undocumented time, incomplete history or unavailable source can limit a comparison. Watch shows the limitation instead of substituting a plausible number. A calendar issue concerns release dates, not necessarily the economic observations themselves.

Does Watch provide investment advice?

No. Watch describes changes and their context. It does not forecast prices, issue buy or sell instructions, or calculate market surprises without licensed consensus data. Market moves close to a release do not establish causation.

How is Watch different from the public l0g sites?

The l0g dashboards and methodologies remain public. Watch adds a personal workspace: indicator watchlists, release history, comparisons, replay, dated exports and alert rules. The subscription pays for these tools, not exclusive access to official statistics.

How does the subscription work?

When subscriptions are open, payment takes place on Stripe. A personal single-use code then lets you activate your access. Manage or cancel through the subscriber portal under the terms of sale. No third-party payment component loads on this page.

No ads or email-open tracking. Your watchlist stays private. No investment advice.
