Rates are the euro foreign-exchange reference rates published by the European Central Bank once per working day, retrieved through the free Frankfurter API. They are mid-market reference rates for information only — banks, card networks and money-transfer services add their own spread or fees. For intraday prices use the live pair charts below.

Understanding Exchange Rates

What Affects Exchange Rates?

Exchange rates are influenced by multiple economic factors:

  • Interest rate differentials between countries
  • Inflation rates and purchasing power
  • Economic growth and GDP performance
  • Political stability and geopolitical events
  • Trade balances and current account deficits
  • Central bank policies and interventions
  • Market sentiment and speculation

Currency Trading Sessions

Forex markets operate 24/5 across different trading sessions:

  • Sydney Session: 10 PM - 7 AM GMT
  • Tokyo Session: 12 AM - 9 AM GMT
  • London Session: 8 AM - 5 PM GMT
  • New York Session: 1 PM - 10 PM GMT

Highest volatility occurs during session overlaps, especially London-New York (1 PM - 5 PM GMT).

Reading Currency Quotes

Currency pairs show exchange rates between two currencies:

  • Base Currency: First currency in the pair (EUR in EUR/USD)
  • Quote Currency: Second currency in the pair (USD in EUR/USD)
  • Exchange Rate: How much quote currency equals one unit of base currency
  • Pip: Smallest price movement, typically 0.0001

Example: EUR/USD = 1.0850 means 1 Euro equals 1.0850 US Dollars.

Using the Converter

How the converter at the top of this page works:

  • Enter an amount and pick the two currencies; the result updates as you type
  • The swap button reverses the direction of the conversion
  • Rates are the ECB’s daily reference rates, published around 16:00 CET on working days
  • The table shows the same amount in the other major currencies
  • For prices that move during the trading day, use the live pair charts and cross-rate table
