The CURRENCYH function returns historical data on the exchange rate between two currencies for a given date. The value returned is in the currency to which you’re converting (currency‑2).
CURRENCYH(currency-1, currency-2, close, date)
currency-1: The currency code for the currency from which you’re converting. currency‑1 is a string enclosed in quotes.
currency-2: The currency code for the currency to which you’re converting. currency‑2 is a string enclosed in quotes.
close: An optional modal value specifying the exchange rate attribute to be returned.
“close” (0 or omitted): The exchange rate of currency-1 to currency-2 at the close of trading on the day specified by date, expressed as an amount in currency‑2.
“open” (1): The exchange rate of currency-1 to currency-2 at the beginning of trading on the day specified by date, expressed as an amount in currency‑2.
“high” (2): The highest exchange rate on the day specified by date, expressed as an amount in currency‑2.
“low” (3): The lowest exchange rate on the day specified by date, expressed as an amount in currency‑2.
date: The date for which you want the historical exchange rate information. date can be a valid past date string enclosed in quotes (for example “11/1/2014” or “Dec 31, 2015”), a formula that returns a past date, or a reference to a cell containing a valid past date or date formula.
Currency codes are defined by ISO 4217, a standard published by the International Organization for Standardization. You can find the ISO 4217 currency codes on the web.
If you enter a formula with CURRENCYH when the internet is unavailable, CURRENCYH returns no value. However, when the internet becomes available, the formula updates with a value returned by CURRENCYH.
