Hello Support,

Can you please confirm if there is a function to manage (reduce) cross-currency exposure?

For example from:

* long 1 lot EURUSD
* short 1 lot GBPUSD

to:

* long 1 lot EURGBP

This would be similar in spirit to the merge operation (https://www.dukascopy.com/wiki/#currency_exposure), but across multiple currencies.

Thank you

Thanks for your reply.

However I don't see anything in the page you mentioned that would address the issue specifically.

Do we have to code our own cross-currency merging routine or is there already a functionality to do this?

If not, would you consider adding it?

A strategy can do that. Have a look at the given examples to get ideas how to work with order and position data.
