Wrong currency conversion on Statement of Assets view

Hi.
Am I missing something or did I found a bug on the currency conversion of an asset in the "Statement of Assets (Standard) view?

My base currency is EUR and have a stock in USD, but the Market Value is higher in euros than in USD. Which is weird taking in consideration that at time of writing 1 euro is worth more than 1 USD. 557,76 USD are not worth 604,28 EUR.

Just switching the view between displaying the data in USD or in EUR one can see the inconsistency:

This will then also skew the chart graph under statement of assets.

Sorry if it is already known.
Thanks!

No, I do not assume a bug. Kindly check the currency converter at the left bottom side at currencies what exchange rate is determined.

The typical reason would be that you’ve tried to add an exchange rate yourself.

Thank you both for the tips.
Now I understand the issue.
At some point in time I’ve added “EURUSD=X” to the list of my securities because I wanted to have a chart with the exchange rate over time.
When I go to Exchange Rates under Currencies section I see a lot of EUR to other currencies with ECB as the provider, but then almost at the end I see USD to EUR with the provider: Security based exchanged, and basically the rate there is reversed, thus I was seeing the value in USD bigger then in EUR.
When I deleted “EURUSD=X” from the security list, the issue went away. For some reason it is confusing EURUSD with USDEUR.

Thanks.
