Hello,

Can you give me an example? So, if you bought something for $100 you want to change it to something like $105? Are you trying to add the same fixed amount, or scale by some factor because if currency?

Above prices in USD. Need to convert to GBP for Cap Gains. So Divide Cost & Disposal by say GBP to USD 1.4.

worst case I can fx the data before importing into FM. As I have been doing

Hi,

You can use the multiple currency feature. You can view your capital gains in either the native currency of the investment or a default currency, and you can choose both of these. See the multiple currency tutorial here:
