FX Carry Trade API

healthy 4,590 Subscribers

Live carry-trade and rollover analytics that FX traders run before borrowing a low-yield currency to buy a high-yield one, computed on demand from the interest rates you pass in — no key, no cache, nothing stored. The carry endpoint returns the interest-rate differential, the carry income over a holding period, the financing-adjusted yield and the leveraged return on margin, so you see exactly what a position earns. The rollover endpoint returns the daily, weekly and monthly swap — positive when you receive carry, negative when you pay it — the number a broker debits or credits each night. The breakeven endpoint returns how far the spot rate can move against the position before the carry is wiped out: the cushion the carry buys you, and the break-even spot level. This is an interest-rate and carry engine, distinct from pip and lot calculators and price tools: it turns two yields, leverage and time into the income and the risk cushion of a carry trade. The carry trade is one of the most-used FX strategies (think funding in yen to hold a higher-yielding currency), and these are the numbers behind it. Computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for FX dashboards, strategy back-tests, position sizers and trading tools. Rates are annual percentages (5.5 = 5.5%). Live, nothing stored. 3 compute endpoints. For live policy rates feed them in from a central-bank or rates API.

Currency Index API

Live currency-index maths that FX desks run to turn a set of exchange rates into a single index value, computed on demand from the rates you pass in — no key, no cache, nothing stored. The dxy endpoint computes the US Dollar Index (USDX) from its six component rates using the official ICE weights and formula — feed in EUR/USD, USD/JPY, GBP/USD, USD/CAD, USD/SEK and USD/CHF and get the index value the way the exchanges calculate it. The index endpoint builds an arbitrary weighted index from your own components: geometric (the standard for currency indices) or arithmetic, with a scaling constant and negative weights for inversely-quoted pairs. The basket endpoint computes a trade-weighted index normalised to 100, showing how a currency has moved against a basket from a set of reference rates — above 100 means it strengthened. This is an index-construction engine, distinct from published effective-exchange-rate feeds and strength meters: you supply the rates and weights and it returns the index, deterministically. Works for any custom basket. Computed locally, so it is instant and private. Ideal for FX dashboards, custom dollar/euro indices, back-tests and macro tools. Live, nothing stored. 3 compute endpoints. For published effective-exchange-rate data use a central-bank or BIS API.

FX Cross-Rate & Triangular Arbitrage API

Live cross-rate, triangular-arbitrage and conversion-path maths that FX desks and trading bots run on a set of quoted rates, computed on demand from the legs you pass in — no key, no cache, nothing stored. The cross endpoint chains two pairs that share a currency into the implied third rate (EUR/USD x USD/JPY gives EUR/JPY) and, if you supply the quoted cross, returns the discrepancy in basis points and whether it is arbitrageable. The triangular endpoint takes a closed loop of three rates and detects a triangular-arbitrage opportunity — the cycle product, the profit in percent, the winning direction (forward or reverse) and the payout on a notional. The chain endpoint converts an amount along a path of pairs and returns the amount at every hop with the effective rate. Each leg is written FROMTO:rate, meaning one unit of FROM buys that many of TO (e.g. EURUSD:1.08). This is an FX cross-rate and arbitrage engine that reasons across several pairs at once, distinct from pip/lot calculators and single-pair converters. Computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for FX arbitrage scanners, multi-currency pricing, treasury routing and trading dashboards. Live, nothing stored. 3 compute endpoints. For live quotes feed in rates from an FX or exchange API.

FX Forward API

Live FX forward and interest-rate-parity maths that FX desks and treasurers run — computed on demand and deterministically, no key, nothing cached. Get the outright forward rate, forward points (in price and pips) and the annualised forward premium or discount from a spot rate, the two currencies' interest rates and a tenor; the full forward-points curve across standard tenors; the interest rate implied by a quoted forward; and a covered interest-rate-parity check that compares a market forward to its theoretical value and reports the cross-currency basis. Works for any currency pair. A forwards-and-parity engine, distinct from spot calculators and risk tools: it turns spot and rates into the forwards, points and basis a desk quotes.

FX History API

Live historical foreign-exchange rates and analytics from the European Central Bank's daily reference rates — no key, nothing cached. Get the daily rate of a currency pair over any date range; the absolute and percentage move between two dates with its high and low; min, max, average, volatility and the best and worst day over a range; and every rate on a specific date. An FX history-and-analytics layer, distinct from spot-conversion feeds — it turns the ECB rate archive into the time series, moves and volatility a trader or analyst studies. Around 30 currencies, weekdays, back to 1999.
