Got an app that currently gets rates from finance.yahoo.com
My knowledge of this stuff is zero, but user is requesting that I use the Bloomberg spot rate instead.
As far as I can see, you have to pay to get access to the Bloomberg API, although I guess a screenscraper would probably do the job.
But technicalities aside, I'd like to understand what the difference is between the rates.
Can someone explain in very simple terms?
