In currency exchange (for example when you have US dollars and want to buy euros, or the opposite), what do you call the mean between the Buy price and Sell price?

In Japanese we call it TTM:

TTM = (TTB + TTS) /2

Where TTB is the price at which you can buy cash, and TTS the price at which you can sell cash.

Is there a similar word or abbreviation in English?

I think mid price, a short form of the more obvious mid-market price is what you are looking for (though the linked articles mainly refer to stocks). I have certainly heard and used mid-market price for this.

  • Side note, do not get it confused with half price or half market price as this means 50% less (money).
