New Zealand Dollar / US Dollar (NZDUSD) market data

NZDUSD is the major pair for New Zealand Dollar against US Dollar.

About New Zealand Dollar / US Dollar (NZDUSD)

NZDUSD is the exchange rate of the New Zealand dollar against the US dollar, quoted as the number of US dollars for one New Zealand dollar. It is one of the standard USD major pairs and is widely used in FX screens, conversion tools, macro dashboards, and trading workflows.

SiftingIO consolidates NZDUSD into a single normalized rate from independent sources. The live quote returns trade price, bid and ask with sizes, a basis-point spread, the contributing venue count, the 24-hour change, and a millisecond timestamp. It can be requested as a REST snapshot or streamed over WebSocket.

Historical NZDUSD bars are available over REST from one-minute through monthly resolution, timestamped in UTC. As with other spot FX pairs, volume is reported as zero because there is no central tape for cash currency trading, while open, high, low, and close remain populated.

The same NZDUSD symbol key works across REST, WebSocket, SDKs, and MCP tools. That makes the pair useful for product screens, treasury dashboards, currency conversion workflows, backtests, alerts, and AI agents that need live or historical foreign exchange context.
