XAG/NZD coverage & file size, timeframe by timeframe
XAG/NZD does not start at the same date at every granularity: daily candles begin 2003-01-09, but the tick archive only reaches 2011-09-19, roughly 8 years later. Each row below gives that timeframe's own start date and scale, current through 2026-08-01:

Working with the XAG/NZD series
Silver against a small commodity currency, with daily data from 2003. Neither leg is large, and the cross's liquidity reflects it — this is a computed price more than a traded market, so spreads are wide and structurally so. Fine for NZD-based accounting of metal exposure; for anything execution-sensitive, trade the liquid legs separately.

Frequently asked questions
- How far back does XAG/NZD data go?
- XAG/NZD daily and monthly candles reach back to 2003-01-09 — roughly 23 years. Tick and intraday history is shorter: it begins 2011-09-19. Both run up to the last completed trading day, and every licence tier reaches all of it.
- Why does XAG/NZD tick data start later than its daily candles?
- Because they come from different parts of the archive. Daily and monthly XAG/NZD candles are reconstructed from long-run end-of-day records going back to 2003-01-09, while the tick archive — every individual bid/ask quote — only begins 2011-09-19, about 8 years later. If your study needs the full 23-year span, work in daily candles; if it needs quote-level detail, 2011-09-19 is the earliest XAG/NZD start date available.
- How large is a full XAG/NZD download?
- The complete XAG/NZD 1-minute history is roughly 5.4M rows, about 270 MB as CSV. Daily candles over the same instrument are far smaller — around 5,900 rows, 297 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/NZD 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.
- Do you sell XAG/NZD data?
- No — we sell software. The MarketData Hub client retrieves Silver vs New Zealand Dollar (XAG/NZD) on your own machine, under your instruction, directly from the source; we never host, cache or relay it. Your use of the retrieved data is subject to the source's terms.
