Hi,Support Team, good afternoon.

I understand the Order Quantity number must be in "units" of each currency.
My question is: Is it always related to the 2nd. currency of each pair ?
e.j. 100.000 USD/SGD means 100.000 SGD ?

Thanks so much in advance for your help
Have a nice evening !

We would think it would be the first currency of the pair.

Thanks Support Team,
I understand then, ALWAYS the Order Quantity number (J26) means the FIRST currency pair.

Is it described anywhere in your Website and/or support database ?

Thanks for your help..!
Have a nice evening

No. This is not documented.

Good morning,

Ok, thanks Support Team. No problem. However, you confirm it's always the FIRST CURRENCY of the pair, don't you ?

Thanks, as always, for your quick support !
Have a nice day !

The reason this is not documented, is because it has not been thoroughly analyzed. We would think this would be the same no matter which trading service you are using.

In the case of Sierra Chart trade simulation mode, logically the quantity will apply to the first currency due to how the calculations for profit/loss are done.
