What value is displayed for Contract Currency in the Mark to Market Screen?

Top  Previous  Next

In the Mark to Market screen, the column “Contract currency” does not show the currency of the contract as indicated on the risk tab for the Final price. This behavior is by design, as the column represents the currency of the column “Contract value” (next to which it is shown) . The Mark to Market screen valuates all contracts in position currency. The column name can be misleading, so we renamed it in 3.15.0 to “Contract value currency” to indicate that it belongs with the “Contract value”.

 

For users interested in the final contract price in its own currency there are also the columns “Settlement price” and “Settlement price / unit “.  They used to be filled only when the settlement currency differed from the pricing currency, but from 3.15.0 they are always filled if a value is known.
