<p>Can you send me a screen shot illustrating the performance
performance issue. I wonder if the old price issue is still being
used to tabulate performance? Also could you send me a screen shot
of your Quotes and exchange extension window.</p>
<p>Currently the securities are held in the base currency of your
data file then converted if the investment account or security is
of a different currency. This is what caused the issue in the
budget report.</p>
<p>This has caused a few issuers and there is discussion to change
this to allow the securities to be held in their own currency.</p>

I haven't time just now to make screen shots or to do a systematic search of the problem. The only thing I can contribute at the moment is an observation from yesterday and this morning.<br>
Yesterday I made some changes (moving cash och shares) to both the EUR and SEK investment accounts and then closed the file without looking at the total sum of investments.<br>
This morning, when I opened the file, I saw that, in the sum of all investments accounts on the summary page, was completely wrong (all accounts were summed up as being in EUR, thus giving a much too high total, as 1 EUR is about 10 SEK).<br>
Then I ran the "Quotes and Exchange Rates" extension, and suddenly the sum of all investments accounts were correct again.<br>
Hope it given you some indication of were the problem is.</p>

The sum of all investments accounts on the summary page was wrong, but was corrected the moment the currency rates were updated.<br>
This problem only happens for me overnight. When I close and the open MD during the day, the problem doesn't occur.</p></div>Clan46tag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/412544662016-12-21T23:31:00Z2016-12-23T21:59:08ZQuotes and Exchange rates<div><p>Same problem here -- well kinda. Just recently my quotes went
wild too. The amounts seem in my case to be a fraction of the
proper price (about 60% -- so exchange rate was my immediate
suspicious too).</p>
<p>I also just updated to 2017, but can't confirm that problem was
concurrent. It seems likely, however.</p>
<p>I will post some screenshots. (Are screenshots private? Or do I
need to obfuscate?)</p></div>greg-2012tag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/412544662016-12-22T01:09:18Z2016-12-23T03:46:33ZQuotes and Exchange rates<div><p>Screenshot showing 'history' with correct prices, but current

<p>Are you syncing MD between multiple devise or saving your data
file in dropbox or another 3rd party storage service?</p>

I have noticed that some of my entries in SEK (my base currency is EUR) are wrongly translated into EUR by using the inverse exchange rate, e.g. SEK/EUR instead of EUR/SEK. I have not yet found any systematic trend that can help pinpoint the origin of the problem.</p>
