Rate column

[tamas]

Hi Support,

what is the rate column in the strategy analiyzer? (see the attached image, default settings -> is not turned on).

If rate column is FXRate (forex) value, i will have further question.
Thanks

This value has no consequence in a backtest. This is a standard executions grid which is also used for live trading, it displays the rate in real-time to determine the correct PIP value for calculating PnL.

Thanks Ray,

after all i have questions :)

1) In live trading this rate is FXRate? (for PnL calculation)

2) In backtest analisys where can i see and set the base currency, and the conversion of other base currency? (eg: account base currency is USD, but position 100.000 EUR/GBP, so what will be the conversion FXRate of 100.000 EUR (on EUR/USD rate)). Is it possible at all? Does NT use this?

1) If you mean the conversion rate then yes
2) In backtest, its not used
