This is a Java-based application, so please be patient while it is downloading. Using OANDA's Foreign Exchange Protocol (FXP) server software, the foreign exchange "playground" allows you to display customized graphs of historical exchange rates and cross-rate tables for any of the 164 currencies. Daily rates are available back to 1990. See tips below. (IE5 users: see IE tips if you are having trouble with the graphs.)

• The "Save Basket As" button will let you save up to 7 different baskets of currencies.
• You can bookmark this page so that you can re-use your saved currency baskets next time.
• The "Graph absolute values" works best when displaying only one currency or a set of currencies that are similar in value. To avoid getting many horizontal lines, try to select a set of currencies that are similar in value, such as CHF and CAD.
• Printing the graphs and tables: Printing of graphs has been disabled.

IE5 Tips:
If you have trouble using the graphs, follow these steps:

• Under the "Tools" menu option, select "Internet Options".
• Choose the "Advanced" tab and Scroll down to the "Java VM" section.
• Disable the "JIT Compiler for Virtual Machine" checkbox.
• Select "Apply" to apply your choice.
• Continue graphing your baskets!
