Are there any online (free) FOREX charts that only banks use? I am NOT refering to OANDA, FXCM, or spread trading services. I need currency charts that show historical graphs for ALL world currencies.

Answer
First of all, if there is such a thing as "charts that only banks use," how would we get access to them? Second, what would keep others from getting the same "charts," i.e., why could we not get access to them? Thirdly, how would we know if there is such a thing as "charts that only banks use," unless we work for a bank, and we're not tellin', because we don't want others to get access to "charts that only banks use." And last, if only banks use them, why would they be free online?

You see, this question is a little confusing. Are you really interested in the "charts," or charting software, or are you more interested in the data feed, and ability to show "ALL world currencies?"

Are you really interested in "ALL" charts or just those used by banks?

Can you really expect to get everything or "ALL" for nothing?

I can give you several websites where you can enter a ticker symbol or pick from a list of currencies one at a time. But how do you know wheter they are "ALL" there, or whether these charts are used by banks?

To get them "ALL" at once, you will have to pay for the data feed, about $100/mo, like everyone else. But you should check with the data vendor first, to make sure that they are supplying ALL of them. Usually, data services are geared to traders, institutions, whatever. It appears you are not interested in the typical data service, but wish to pay some astronomical fee for ALL, and this service would certainly not be offered for free.

But an occasional quote can be had just about any time anywhere that offers quotes. You don't make the distinction about what is so unusual or hard to get about a particular currency quote, or give us any idea what application requires this.

Here is one of the most extensive lists I've seen of currency codes from the CIA World Factbook, but no quotes. These will help you with the symbols once you find that atypical data feed service.
