XAG/CHF history runs from 2023-03-14 — roughly 3 years — up to the last completed trading day, at every timeframe from raw ticks to monthly candles. Every licence tier reaches all of it.

How large is a full XAG/CHF download?

The complete XAG/CHF 1-minute history is roughly 1.2M rows, about 61 MB as CSV. Daily candles over the same instrument are far smaller — around 850 rows, 43 KB. Tick and 1-second runs are larger again and are queued and resumable rather than fetched in one pass. Sizes are approximate; nothing is priced by volume.

What columns are in the XAG/CHF CSV file?

OHLC files contain a timestamp plus open, high, low and close columns (with volume); tick files contain a timestamp with bid and ask prices. All timestamps are UTC. The files import directly into Excel, Google Sheets, Python (pandas read_csv), R, MetaTrader, NinjaTrader and TradingView.

Working with the XAG/CHF series

Silver against the franc is the metal against a haven — the pair where "commodity risk-on" and "Swiss risk-off" pull opposite directions, so it often moves less than XAG/USD in global stress. The listed series only starts in March 2023; for anything longer, construct it synthetically from XAG/USD and USD/CHF and accept that synthetic spreads differ from quoted ones.
