Hi Mark, This is my second try. I own 2888.hk in hk$ . In currency settings my us$ template has hkdusd=x for hk$. Today and yesterday, the price is showing incorrectly. The open/high/low prices are correct in hk$ . The closing price is showing correctly in us$. in the data register and in my report, the price hace been reduced a second time, to $2.02, which means fund manager reduced the closing price per share twice. Whant have i done wrong? Thnks Cliff.

Hi Cliff,

Are you entering the price manually, or retrieving it somehow? If retrieving, what server are you using? Maybe you can show the properties of this investment, showing what currency it is assigned to, and also your currency settings?

You want to make sure you're entering or retrieving the price in the native currency assigned to the investment. So, if the investment's property for currency is hk$, enter/retrieve in hk$. It looks like the closing price is getting updated differently than the open/high/low.

If you haven't already seen it, we have a tutorial on using multiple currencies in Fund Manager.
