Units of prices shown : Pence for UK and Dollars for US shares

[alam1]

My first day as a member and I was getting familiar with the new platform the data,multiple features and the layout

One of my main concerns was the UK prices are shown in pence (& possibly also EU market), but US prices are shown in Dollars (& not pence) and 

the whole lot is shown on one pane and without Units of the currency..which I thought needed to be improved

Hey, 

Thanks for your post. 

The reason UK stocks are quoted in pence is because that's how they're quoted in the underlying market. Whereas, US shares are quoted in dollars.

It's something we do to keep in line with how the underlying market works however I can pass on your feedback to see if there's a way we can explain that on the platform for traders : 

Thanks again for the feedback
