Hi.

I have an account in euros, in Icompta.

ANd i have securities in Euros, GBP and USD. With the stocks in GBP, the app show the price wrong, because in google finance the price is in pences. And the app take this price and show it as GBP.

I have read, that a fix can be to create a new currency, GBX, and use the change rate equal to the change rate of GBP / 100 and set that currency for that british security. But at the end, this securitie price is not converted to euros. And the total balance of my money is wrong (we have many stocks in GBP).

Any solution, please?

As I told you you need to enter the change rate of GBX to the value of GBP / 100 but you need to enter the amount directly, you can't type "GBP / 100" as it won't work.
