How to get spot and forward rate using RTO?

tedyen

I would like to get real-time spot and forward rate using RTO and is there any doc to describe how to compose the request?

Here is the request I use to get market price for EUR. How to get spot and forward rate by base currency and quote currency?

{  "Domain": "MarketPrice",  
   "ID": 2,  
   "Key": {    
      "Name": "EUR=",    
      "Service": "ELEKTRON_DD"  
   },  
   "View": [    "BID",    "ASK",    "HIGH_1",    "LOW_1",    "OPEN_BID",    "OPEN_ASK",    "CLOSE_BID",    "CLOSE_ASK"  ]
}

Hello @tedyen

I am not the content expert, but based on my understanding, the EUR= RIC is already a Spot Rate.

Examples:

• GBP= —> shows the spot rate dollar against the British pound Sterling
• THB= --> US Dollar/Thai Bath FX Spot rate
• JPY= --> US Dollar/Japanese Yen FX Spot rate

About the Forward Rate, I checked the https://developers.lseg.com/en/tools-catalog/ric-search tool and I found the following RIC code that you can use with the WebSocket API Item Request JSON message

You may contact the Real-Time Content Support team to verify the RIC code of the Spot or Forward Rate that you need.
