Do you agree that it is uncomfortable to see the price of palladium in a currency foreign to your country? If your answer is positive, we recommend using this API.
It is a rare transition metal that has a similarity to Platinum, so it is possible to confuse them. The element Palladium is ductile, soft, malleable, silvery white, rare in the earth’s crust and resistant to corrosion. The symbol for Palladium (“Pd” on the periodic table) is an abbreviation for the Latin word palladium.
Palladium has many uses such as: in automobiles, in the oil industry, electronics, photography, jewelry, hydrogen purification, aircraft spark plugs, watches, surgery and orthodontics, medicine, and of course, as an investment mechanism. In fact, right now it is 16% more expensive than gold, but its current price is far from its historical highs.
