How to read today's dollar
Buying and selling. "Buy" is what you get paid for every dollar you sell; "sell," what you pay for every dollar you buy. If you're going to buy, see the sale ($ 1.570 in the blue, $ 1.570 in the officer of the Banco Nación); If you're going to sell, buy it.
Weekends and holidays. The official, MEP and CCL rates only trade on business days (the official one from 10 to 15). On Saturdays, Sundays and holidays the last close applies. The blue barely moves after hours, and the crypto dollar trades 24 hours a day, so it is the reference when the rest are closed.
Gap. It is how much more expensive a dollar is than the official rate. Today the blue is in line with the official rate. You can follow it day by day in the gap calculator.
Where to buy. Legally, the official dollar is bought through online banking or digital wallets, and MEP at any broker (ALyC) or bank with a brokerage account. In where to buy dollars we compare prices by bank and wallet.
