Multi currency

[dave1992]

I'm well used to using apps that are only concerned with USD, but NT seems to try and cover multi currency. I see PnL in the correct currency, and the correct currency in Instrument Manager. However I see one currency in commissions and one currency in accounts, account performance and strategy analyzer.

Am I right in thinking that multi currency is only half covered, and that other currencies are translated into dollars (with NO conversion of their amounts?) in various places? If so, honestly it would be more useful and professional to have it all in USD. And if so, when will multi currency be properly implemented?

thanks
Dave

You are correct. I will forward your suggestion to support multiple currencies consistent throughout the application.

With respect, I would imagine the request was on your wishlist quite a long time ago? Why on earth did the decision to half implement it get made. That's worse than not having it. I imagine this is a priority since it must have been outstanding for a while and half implemented is not good PR?

Not trying to have a go at you guys here, just saying how it looks to a customer in Europe.

thanks

Well, it's getting on for three years now. Could I please ask what id this is on the suggestions list? (it should really be listed as a bug)

thanks

I too am wondering about this issue....seems strange that this product is being sold around the world and handles international issues in many currencies yet when i look at my performance for the day my results are skewed because a HK dollar is treated the same as Euro as a US dollar as an Aussie Dollar etc.....????

I can't even just look at points because i trade at least two markets, the Hang Seng and the DAX and point values are totally different,

Any fix for this yet? Maybe i missed something?

My guess is this sort of significant development won't happen for years. I think the focus will be bug fixes, third parties, ancilliary products (such as kinetick)

Thanks Dave......

I think we deserve to see some sort of response and expectation of time before the issue can be resolved.....

Be able to reflect results in the proper currency is on our list of possible future enhancements. It is assigned to ID# 561.

Hello,

is it possible to publish the list of possible enhancements?

Unfortunately not.

[dave1992]

Well, at least four years and counting.....

If you *really* want to make Ninja a professional looking trading platform, these are the sorts of enhancements you need to take seriously. At the moment it looks ridiculous.

Thank you for your feedback. I will forward it to my superiors.
