Forex Position Size Calculator Bug Fix

March 30, 2008 by Trader Rich 

There was an issue with the position size calculator at http://www.forexcalc.com that came to my attention last week when determining the position size of the CHF/JPY.  For example, when selecting CHF/JPY, the calculator needs the current price of two pairs, the CHF/JPY and the USD/CAD.  The bug was preventing the output of the second pair needed to determine position size, in this example, the USD/CAD.  The pairs affected were:

CAD/CHF, all pairs with CHF in the base, all pairs with DKK in the base, and the HKD/JPY.

This has been fixed.

    Are you interested in adding a couple of features?

    I would like to see some additional pairs added, such as XAU/USD, XAG/USD, USD/CNY?

    Why do you need USDCAD to do a calculation for CHFJPY if your base in in USD?

    Macrotactician, yes, I can add those pairs. Anything else?

    You need USD/CAD to do the calculation because the USD rate is used in the quote calculation.
