I know I can be a dumb user at times but can anybody point me at the Ninja solution for this?

Based in the UK, when trading FDAX with the instrument currency correctly set to Euros I get the following:

ChartTrader correctly shows active position size in Euros.
Control Center Positions Tab shows open positions in Pounds.
Control Center Account Performance shows all information in Dollars.

But of course non of them are currency converted, the numbers are just the same.

Am I missing something (I've looked everywhere I know in Ninja, and couldn't find anything on futures.io (formerly BMT)) or do I have to wait for NT8? (And will it be different in there?)

Just accept that there are a few things that NinjaTrader 7 cannot do.

Thanks Harry, do you happen to know if NT8 will sort it? I can ask in the NT8 thread but I'm assuming you'll get to see it earlier than me.
