FXMacroData Macro History shows the macro fundamentals behind an FX pair in a panel below the price chart. Pick a series (central bank policy rate, inflation or unemployment) and the indicator plots it for both currencies of the pair, plus the gap between them.
Each value appears on the chart from its official release time, so a historical bar only shows what had been published at that moment. This makes it useful for studying how price moved around rate decisions and data releases.
Included: USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, AUD, CAD, CHF and NZD, from official central bank and statistics office releases from 2010 (later where a series starts later) to 28 October 2026. The panel in the top-left shows the latest reading for each currency and its release date.
