NinjaScript: Symbol for Currency

[engrvivs]

Is there a NinjaScript function that returns a Currency's symbol?

In particular, I'm accessing currency configured for an instrument through Bars.Instrument.MasterInstrument.Currency.

I wish to display this currency in its equivalent currency sign or three-character ISO 4217 currency symbol:
UsDollar ==> $ or USD
Euro ==> € or EUR
BritishPound ==> £ or GBP
etc.

Is there a way through NinjaScript coding?

Kind Regards

Hello Vivek,

Thank you for your post.

You would override ToString(). For example:

		public override string ToString()
		{
			if (Instrument.MasterInstrument.Currency.ToString() == "Euro")
				return "€";
			else
				return Name;
		}

Thanks Patrick for the response!

So, this means I need to create whole if-else series for all allowed "Currency" in NT.

Where can I find all possible NT "Currency" values, so that I can create such a function?

Kind Regards
Vivek

Hello Vivek,

Thank you for your response.

Go to Tools > Instrument Manager > select any instrument > Edit > then left click on the Currency. All available currencies will be listed here.
