cheers
Sorry that you got annoyed but I posted the message on different threads with different people on them (except one that did not complain anyway) - most of the posters subscribe to just their own posts. So there was no harm done - the whole issue is not worth mentioning.
Take care and be happy when the app gets fixed :-)

Hi.
As of today, I'm experiencing all problems related in this post regarding multiple currencies operations in MMEX 1.3.3.
The suggested workaround to change the "conversion to base rate" (tools>organize currency>edit) does affect the rates in home page, but it also changes all conversion rates even from transactions that were already reconciled. Since, this process will mess the data from reconciled transactions, it should be avoided.
So at the end it seems multiple currencies are nod working correctly indeed.
Are these issues bugs indeed?
Thanks,
Carlos

Exchange rates are updated with Fixer

http://fixer.io/
Fixer is a free API for current and historical foreign exchange rates published by the European Central Bank.
The rates are updated daily around 4PM CET every working day.

although this one https://www.alphavantage.co/ could be better since it can provide the cryptocurrencies prices as well
https://www.alphavantage.co/support/#api-key



and
Stock prices are updated with Morningstar.
and https://www.alphavantage.co/ is also providing stock prices


Perhaps same thing could be done with the desktop app?
thanks for the link.

Hopefully MMEX developers can look into this soon - THANKS!

Hi,

Did anyone manage to get the currency quotes API pull into the MMEX desktop (macOS) to work so far? if yes, any hint please?

I've tried fixer and alpha vintage API in the Options>Others>StockQuoteWebPage as
https://www.alphavantage.co/query
?function=CURRENCY_EXCHANGE_RATE
&from_currency=%s
&to_currency=CHF
&apikey=<MY_API_KEY>

thanks a lot.

Regards,
Frank

I found after organizations for invigorating money related gauges yet since I'm not a product engineer I don't have the foggiest thought whether that can be used. In a perfect world MMEX creators can research this soon.
