  • Problem with GBP quotes

    Hi, my quotes for GBP seems weird, there is no decimal at all.

    What I'm getting now is 187610 with no decimal compared to the correct format of 1.8761

    All other currencies are quoted fine.

    As I understand it in order to implement a recent change in the specs of the GBP (ie the addition of a fifth decimal) eSignal had to format this symbol without a decimal point. eSignal has indicated that it is working on a solution that will restore the decimal point although they have not specified when that may be put in place.
    In the mean time a workaround is to uncheck the Compact Price Display option in File-> Preferences.

      Possible alternative

      Triple3,

      I have not tried this, but I seem to recall this approach giving slightly different results than the raw data directly from eSignal:

      Currency Code(s),@Contributor Code,<space>,Spot/Forward Code,Exchange code
      Example: EUR@FXCM A0-FX, GBPEUR@GFT A0-FX

      There shoud be a fair number of contributors in addition to FXCM, GFT, GAIN, etc...

      Hope this works!
