Thank you!

Yes the intraday calculations that JoshM has brought attention to would not be 100% accurate but they would be extremely close and pretty accurate for testing purposes, as furytrader points out it shouldnt be an issue and a reval each day is more than sufficient. ANYTHING would be better than what w...

I agree entirely that this issue needs sorting out. To have a limit order fill at a better rate in a backtest is entirely counter productive.... This doesnt often happen in the real world so it shouldn't ever happen in testing software.... I was shocked to see a strategy I have written being filled ...

MC- Have we made any progress please?

Henry I have had this issue a few times this week too... Please see attached screenshot. This is on the 9.0 beta I have been able to replicate the issue a few times by loading a chart with a strategy already in the template..... While the chart is still backfilling, select format instruments and cha...

Here is my current workaround: 1) set the portfolio currency to none. 2) created a new exchange, add another set of FX pairs and re imported the data. I set the name with a suffix and its no longer detected as a currency pair. For JPY pair, you can change the BigPointValue. Not accurate backtesting...

Multicharts, can you relook at this problem please?

Thank you

Then you're shocked easily, perhaps too shocked to notice that there are two subjects discussed in this thread: how MultiCharts calculates currency conversions and how it should be done.... I think that understanding the first makes a convincing case for the second easier, hence my suggestion to ch...

Hi guys, Alphacat has it right.... Im a little shocked at how people cannot see this was wrong, when a profit becomes a huge loss or a scratched trade is a huge loss because my home currency happens to be different to the instruments? This is nothing to do with margin settings, it is just the total ...

You can see your current PnL (on a chart, in a DOM window, in Order and Position tracker window) in preferred currency by selecting the desired currency in MultiCharts->File->Preferences->Trading->Preferred currency dropdown menu. I didnt mean for live trading, purely for backtesting purposes / sin...

Isn't the point of this feature so that we can see our p&l in a currency of our choosing instead of the default of the instrument?

If I buy ES today at 1900 and sell it next week at 1900 I have made 0? Do you agree to this?

It doesnt matter where I am in the world or what my home currency is.

Hi Henry.... Funnily enough I just called to see if I could talk to yourself but they said you were busy. How can a $75.30 loss ever be shown as a £165.02 profit? It really troubles me that you guys can believe the calculation you are using to get that figure is correct. In the last 10 years with gb...

Hi all, Had a couple of lengthy chats with Multicharts support about this but noone can seem to understand that there is a problem. The new feature to convert to any currency is something I have been looking forward to, unfortunately when I looked at the conversion on trades I could see that the rev...

Hi everyone, first post here... Been seriously looking forward to this feature to test a basket of fx pairs. However when I try and do this I get the following error shown on the attachment " The currency for the <pair> @ FX instrument is not set. To set the currency, please go to..... I have tried ...
