Trusted Sources
Metals-API’s spot prices are sourced from a very wide base of trade sources and banks around the world, each of them varying types and frequencies. The bigger weighting especially for major currencies and metals, are towards commercial sources as they more accurately reflect the exchange occurring within the markets.
Our system uses a unique “validation and fallback” mechanism to ensure the best possible degree of data coverage and accuracy, assigning different priority to each data source and validating each metal/forex rate as it enters our databases.
In the case that one source fails to offer an accurate quote, the next highest provider for this currency pair is contacted.This allows us to filter out any inconsistencies and deliver the vast majority of spot exchange rates with six decimal places of precision.
