Description

Specifies how the Commission formula is interpreted in a multi-currency script.

Choices

Instrument - commission values are interpreted as being in the currency of the instrument being traded (default)

Account - commission values are interpreted as being in the base currency of the account

Notes

Some brokers, including IB (Interactive Brokers), charge trade commissions in the currency of the instrument being traded. Other brokers may charge commissions in the account's base currency. This setting lets you tell RealTest which way your broker does it.

CommCurrency also determines how commission values in Imported Trade Lists are interpreted.
