How to read this

Each row is a completed daily close in UTC. Missing days stay missing. Weekends have no rows. Intraday prices are not included.

Rates show how much of the quote currency one unit of the base currency buys. Cross rates use matching USD observations. Bank fees and transfer charges can change the rate you receive.
