- 8hr avg: means eight hours of continuous hours of the average arithmetic mean.
- Dayaverage: one day, means the arithmetic average of an hour on average.
- 24hr avg: Continuous sampling means 24 hours of samples from an analysis of the value of the proceeds.
- Month average: refers to the entire mid-day average of the arithmetic mean.
- Year average: in the year means the arithmetic mean of the average Japanese.
- In the geometric mean: refers to the year in the 24 hours worth of the geometric mean.
