Currency Crosses

Beginner Questions
1

Hi guys,
I usually trade only the majors and commidity pairs, but as I’m starting to look into currency crosses, something suddenly stumbled onto my mind…

If my account balance is in USD, how does the trading crosses exactly work?
Would my profit/loss (let’s go with the first one, haha…) be calculated in the other currency which is then converted into USD? Wouldn’t that result in a loss at times?

Thanks,
Clark.

No regardless of the cross, you win or lose on that cross irrespective of your bankroll preference of choice. :slight_smile:

Now hedging your actual USD bank roll is another whole can of worms! :smiley:
