"Thanks for the great product and support. During this week of high volume trading, my QuoteTracker + IQ Feed setup never missed a beat. Also, thanks for your swiftness in responding to data issues. I was on ******* for a few years before I made the switch over early this year, and wish I had done it a long time ago." - Comment from Ken

"I just wanted to say how happy I am with your service. I was able to download the API docs last week and I was able to replicate Interactive Brokers historical bar queries and realtime bar queries over the weekend. That was about one of the fastest integrations that I've ever done and it works perfectly!!!!" - Comment from Jason via Email

I get daily history for EURUSD.FXCM going back to 5/11/1993. EURUSD.COMP gives daily history back to 1/1/1999 (date of EURO creation). What is the 1993-1998 data that FXCM is showing since the EURO wasn't around then?

Thanks.

Hello Chud,

The EURUSD.FXCM data that predates the actual start date of the Euro is derived data that was created by and provided by FXCM. This data was derived from the currencies that would eventually be delisted and replaced by the Euro. Thanks for asking.
