Profit / Loss in USD

[Guest Jameshbennett96]

Hi,

When I trade on GBPUSD the profits and losses are always shown in USD - is there a way for this to be seen in the same currency as my trading account (GBP).

In particular when setting a limit order & the potential loss value is shown in USD.

 

Thanks!

Hi @Jameshbennett96,  check you have not accidentally switched the deal or order ticket to USD in the size section. Look for the small blue arrow next to 'Size' for the drop down box.

Do you know how to amend it for Forex pairs?

I dont have the drop down option on any pair!

Hi @Jameshbennett96,  ok so you must then be referring to a cfd and not a spread bet account. For cfd the currency denomination is always the Quote currency eg GBP/USD is in USD while GBP/EUR is in Euros and EUR/GBP is in GBP.

As far as I'm aware there is not a auto currency converter built into the platform and the conversion needs to be done manually.
