Data source and methodology

Finlazo retrieves published daily FX reference observations from Frankfurter. The date beside the rate is the source observation date, not the time a transfer can be executed. Data may not update on weekends or holidays.

Historical highs, lows and percentage changes are calculated from dated values returned by Frankfurter. The source may repeat earlier observations on some calendar dates. Finlazo does not invent values or treat missing data as zero. These figures are for research and estimation, not guaranteed exchange or payout prices.
