Hi guys,

if my base currency is in USD (for example) there's a method to do convert entry contracts to this?

For example, if i use:

BUY 100.000 EURUSD

I will buy 100.000 EUR

But i want to buy quantity in Base currency, so, If i want buy 100.000 USD of EURUSD and rate is 1.0672, i have to buy 92.925 EURUSD.

Best Regards

no erocla,

you can check the convert_currency reserved word, this will help you in converting the size to the currency.

Dear ABCTG,

have you noticed that in Forex market with IB Broker, base currency is set as right currency instead of left ?

no erocla,

I am not sure what you mean by that. If you are saying the base currency needs to be the destination currency with IB when using the "Convert_Currency" reserved word, this might be a bug and if you can reproduce it you should contact Multicharts so they can fix it.
