1@Saxtheowl and Ole: I see that you readded the tag [tag:API]. I don't feel strongly about it, but figured I could explain why I had removed it in the first place. Tags on Stackexchange are used to describe the topic of a question. This question asks about terminology in the context of exchange rates. The terms were found by using an API, but the question is not about APIs. :) – Murch – 2019-10-02T19:51:11.790
