Hello All,
I am backtesting some different trading systems, I have noticed that there can be a significant difference in returns and winning percentage when "FX Cash Conversion" is selected or not.
I haven't found a good explanation as to when this should be used, or at least don't understand the limited documentation provided.
If, I'm trading via an FX broker using the spot market, should I have "FX Cash Conversion" enabled or disabled?
Any help would be appreciated.
This setting is for trading Stocks in different currencies, not for fx. Description is in the manual and https://www.interactivebrokers.com/images/flash/tours/MechanicsOfForeignTransaction/index.html
I have the same doubt as @ontheedge and when I try to open the link, it seems that windows no longer supports or allows to open documents with flash....
Could you send me a link that I can consult?
Thank you very much in advance.
