Re: [amibroker] Margin Deposit Question.

[Aron <apforex@xxxxxxxxx>]

Does that mean that for:

Account base currency = "USD"
initialEquity = 10,000
Leverage = 1:100;
Symbol  = EURJPY
EURJPY(bid) = 160
ContractSize  = 100,000 (EUR)

marginDeposit = ContactSize*EURJPY(bid)/ Leverage  = 100.000* 160/100 = 
160,000 Yen
or
marginDeposit = initilaEquity/Leverage = 10,000/ 100 = 100 USD

How AB handles FX rate conventions to determine the number of contracts 
in this case?

Thanks.
