Instruction

It is very easy to use this template. You will know right away when you see this example:

{{Exchange Rate|TWD}}

which produces

سعر الصرف TWD الحالي

من Yahoo! Finance: AUD CAD CHF EUR GBP HKD JPY USD
من XE.com: AUD CAD CHF EUR GBP HKD JPY USD
من Investing.com: AUD CAD CHF EUR GBP HKD JPY USD
منOANDA.com: AUD CAD CHF EUR GBP HKD JPY USD

Additional currencies

You may also specify up to 3 additional foreign currencies.

{{Exchange Rate|SGD|MYR|CNY|IDR}}

produces

سعر الصرف SGD الحالي

من Yahoo! Finance: AUD CAD CHF EUR GBP HKD JPY USD MYR CNY IDR
من XE.com: AUD CAD CHF EUR GBP HKD JPY USD MYR CNY IDR
من Investing.com: AUD CAD CHF EUR GBP HKD JPY USD MYR CNY IDR
منOANDA.com: AUD CAD CHF EUR GBP HKD JPY USD MYR CNY IDR

Mock header level 3

You may specify header = h3 so that the mock header looks like the level 3 header. By default, the mock header looks like level 2 header. This template currently only supports an overridden mock header 3, not level 4, 5, or 6.

{{Exchange Rate|EUR|header = h3}}

produces

سعر الصرف EUR الحالي

من Yahoo! Finance: AUD CAD CHF GBP HKD JPY USD
من XE.com: AUD CAD CHF GBP HKD JPY USD
من Investing.com: AUD CAD CHF GBP HKD JPY USD
منOANDA.com: AUD CAD CHF GBP HKD JPY USD

Alternative layout

If you don't like the mock header you can specify style = navbox which produces something a bit navbox-ish.

{{Exchange Rate|EUR|style=navbox}}

produces


سعر الصرف EUR الحالي
من Yahoo! Finance: AUD CAD CHF GBP HKD JPY USD
من XE.com: AUD CAD CHF GBP HKD JPY USD
من Investing.com: AUD CAD CHF GBP HKD JPY USD
منOANDA.com: AUD CAD CHF GBP HKD JPY USD

Caveat

  • "Current XYZ exchange rates" looks like a section title, but it's not. This was done to "remove" the edit buttons on the right so that people won't accidentally change the template. However, the side effect of that is the font size won't change in IE (at least IE6) if I enlarge or shrink my font size.

Choice of currencies

Currently, the 8 default currencies listed here are Bloomberg's benchmark currencies [1].

Old choice of currencies

(This section is a casual talk of the author. The author does not guarantee the accuracy of any data here.)

It is hard to determine which currencies are major or of great importance. I finally settled down with the 11 listed above. According to the data on wikipedia itself when I wrote this, these 11 currencies covered 82% of the world GDP (nominal), 75~76% using PPP, and 57% of the world population. I only included the 22 principle countries (12 in eurozone + the other 10) for simplicity of calculation. These ratios are expected to be higher if you include other countries/region that use currencies or will be using (e.g. new E.U members).

Here are a few more candidate currencies if we were to add more. The rank is the rank excluding the currencies already on the list.

Currency Rank Regional Importance
GDP (nom) GDP (PPP, IMF) GDP (PPP, World Bank) GDP (PPP, CIA) Population
South Korean won 1 1 1 1 14
Indonesian rupiah 9 2 2 2 1 Southeast Asia
New Taiwan dollar 5 3 3 34
Swiss franc 2 21 18 18 76
Turkish new lira 3 5 3 5 9 Middle East
Swedish krona 4 18 15 17 67
South African rand 11 4 6 8 15 Southern Africa
Argentine peso 13 8 5 7 18 South America
