Automated Daily FX Rate Aggregation via Shell Scripting

forex currency data-aggregation api-parsing
Prompt
Design a Bash script that retrieves daily foreign exchange rates from multiple financial APIs (Alpha Vantage, Open Exchange Rates, Fixer.io), compares their responses, validates data integrity, and generates a normalized CSV with standardized currency conversion rates. Implement error handling for API connection failures, rate limit management, and automatic retry mechanisms. The script should log all API interactions and generate alerts if discrepancies exceed 0.5% between sources.
