Is there a function that converts the currency value per tick to the user's base currency? I'm building a position sizing study and would like to convert USD,JPY, etc to EUR.
I'd guess there must be something as SC converts charts P&L to the user selected currency.

This is not supported in ACSIL. And we are not in a position to add this anytime soon.

I see. How about an easy way to access fx rates (from SC forex data) without having a chart open? Or, less ideal, accessing a quoteboard.

Edit: By using sc.GetBasicSymbolData(),I guess.

Yes, use that function. Here is the documentation:
sc.GetBasicSymbolData()
