Taiwan Dollar (TWD) conversion bug. Interactive Brokers XML

Hi there,

I realized when checking my IB import: everything seems to be fine except one share in one specific currency: Taiwan Semiconductors in TWD.

When checking the account balance, the SW thinks is in EUR, not in TWD. I (triple) checked the ticker and the prices, and everything is OK (2330.TW). I confirmed this when I activated Forex-> Currency exchange, and it appears 1,00 (as it were already in EUR where it is not) (see the screenshot attached). Could anyone help me or is it actually a bug when importing from IB? It is a pity because the rest of it is perfect and I can do it automatically. Thanks in advance…

Well, the European Cenral Bank does not offer an exchange rate for TWD, but this could might be done in reference to How to add the exchange rate between USD/COP (US dollar to Colombian Pesos) - #3 by AndreasB
