Need raw data (OHLC)

Beginner Questions
1

Hi,
I need the daily Open, High, Low, Close (OHLC) data for EUR/USD and USD/CHF in raw form preferably in Excel sheet or some structured form which I can feed into Excel or MS- Access and do further analysis. My broker charting facilities give only the graphical form of this data. Is there any site where from I can get the raw data free of cost? Thanks

You can probably get the data you need from Dukascopy.

Hi buddy, if you are using MetaTrader platform it is very easy to get OHLC data at a click. Follow the instructions below:

  1. Open MT4 Platform
  2. Go to Tools > History Center
  3. Click any desired symbols for example: EURUSD
  4. Click Export and select type as csv

If you get the csv file, it is very much easier to convert in Excel

csv stands for “coma seperated value”. This is an excel file but it is a commonly used format of an excel file to import or export data.

and if your not using MT4 just open a demo account with a broker that uses MT4.
