What News Calendar is best to use? This Monday DailyFx have a MEDIUM impact news happening at 04:40, the same news happening have HIGH impact at Forex Factory?

I do not know ... it depends on what (which news events) you are going to trade ... I like dailyfx calendar ...

Ok, thanks....I see that you start your MT4 a little bit before the news events...I wonder, if I don't have time to sit in front of my PC right before the news events, can I leave the PC on all day?

Yes, you can (because this is EA). But in this case - you should set your setting for the noews events which you are going to trade.
I starting MT4 10 minutes before news events - because I do not want to trade all high impacted news events.
