Hello,
i have the problem that I have an IB account in euro and I want to trade US-stocks in dollar. If I use the Broker-reported Account Value Wealthlab understand the value as Dollar and not as euro, so the positionsize is not the right one if I select % of Equity.
Is there a possibility to got to Wealthlab the value of EURUSD?

Thank you

We should be providing your account's Base Currency, so if that's Euro, then your account's Net Liquidation value in Euro will be the basis of the % sizing. I think this is what you're asking for - even though you said that you're trading USD and you want EURUSD???

Currently, the only way to make that in USD is to change your Base Currency to USD
in your IB account settings. Providing more options than that will probably fall under the "Multi-Currency Simulations" support request - that surprisingly NO ONE has voted for except me!

Stumbled onto this by accident. Multi-Currency Backtests have been implemented (@Cone's tremendous effort!) in B36:
