Ethereum vs US Dollar coverage & file size, timeframe by timeframe
Every Ethereum vs US Dollar timeframe shares the same 2017-12-11 start date, but not the same scale — coarser candles stay small while tick and intraday files grow fast. Current through 2026-11-02:

Working with the Ethereum vs US Dollar series
Ether's history contains two structural changes with no equivalent in traditional assets: the move from proof-of-work to proof-of-stake in September 2022, and the fee-burning change of August 2021. Both altered the asset's supply dynamics mid-series, so a single model fitted across the whole span is fitting more than one regime. Like Bitcoin it trades 24/7, and coverage begins December 2017 — near the top of that cycle, which flatters or punishes start-date-sensitive backtests depending on direction.
ETH/USD historical data — a 24/7 market in a CSV file
ETH/USD tick and 1-minute data
Every timeframe starts 2017-12-11, ticks and daily alike. The full 1-minute run is 4.7M rows, about 234 MB as CSV; hourly is 77,900 rows, about 4 MB as CSV; the complete daily history is 3,200 rows, about 162 KB as CSV. Those sizes are larger than a forex pair's over the same years, because there is no weekend gap: seven days a week, every week.
ETH/USD daily OHLC — there is no closing bell
Crypto has no official close, so every daily candle is a convention. This file cuts at UTC midnight. Exchanges and charting sites do not all use the same cut, so two daily ETH/USD files can disagree on every open and close without either being wrong. Weekly candles have the same problem: a week that starts on Monday and one that starts on Sunday are different weeks. When daily candles from two sources disagree, compare the cut-off first.
Annualise with 365 days, not 252
Backtesting tools written for stocks and forex often assume 252 trading days a year. On a 24/7 series that understates annualised volatility by about 17% — the correct figure is √(365/252) ≈ 1.20 times larger — and every annualised Sharpe ratio built on it is off by the same factor. Weekend rows are real market data, not gaps to drop: a weekday-only filter removes about two-sevenths of the series and some of its largest moves.
Is ETH/USD historical data free?
The app is a free download and the data comes straight from Dukascopy Bank SA to your disk, never through our servers. Every licence, including the €9 entry tier, reaches the whole ETH/USD archive at every timeframe — tiers differ by software features, never by history.
What's inside the Ethereum vs US Dollar file
timestamp,open,high,low,closeOne row per candle, stamped with the bar's opening time; tick files instead carry timestamp,askPrice,bidPrice,askVolume,bidVolume on every quote — ask first. Timestamps are epoch milliseconds in UTC, which pd.to_datetime(df.timestamp, unit="ms", utc=True) or =A2/86400000+DATE(1970,1,1) turns into a date.
