: I'm a newcomer to FM, so please forget me if this is a stupid question.
: My investmens are in Euros, but I'd like to see them in another currency too. For example, I'd like to see a report telling me the value of my portfolio in a chosen currency different from the native one. The reason is obvious: many european people are not very accustomed to Euro yet, so we would like to be able to see our portfolio in our national currency too.
: Is there a way to do it with FM? (besides making two investments, which is of course VERY unconvenient)
: Thanks Hi Jomas,
Yes, you can do this. You would set up your currency settings under
"Options/Currency Settings...". To do what you want, you would put your
national currency as the "Default" currency, and have the Euro as one
of your other available currencies. You can then either assign a fixed
exchange rate, or assign a special "exchange rate investment" to be used
as the daily exchange rate. You can toggle the adjustment on/off under
"View/Exchange Rate Adjusted". Thanks,
Mark
