Current exchange rate for orderquantity
So I'm trying to set up my strategy so that it buys, say, $10000 USD worth of whatever pair the strategy is dropped on, even it is is a pair not involving USD.

Hello Marktheshark,
Thanks for your post and welcome to the NinjaTrader forum.
I wouldn't know of a way to import that the exchange rate into a strategy. Since the loading of a dynamic Data Series is not currently supported, I believe what you would need to do here is program your strategy for a specific pair and calculate the exchange rate from within the strategy.
My colleague answered a similar post last year about how to calculate the PnL for his strategy to include the exchange rate.

Thank you for your quick reply!
I was hoping there would be an easy way, mainly for comparing backtesting results on different currency pairs, but I will just be calculating order size manually for now.
