Hi,

I have a question when running an FX strategy on a basket of FX pairs with an initial deposit in USD.

//while(asset(loop("EUR/USD", "AUD/CAD", "EUR/NZD", "GBP/AUD", "USD/JPY", "GBP/JPY")))

how does zorro correctly calculate the proper cross margin if I am trading in USD or my original balance is in USD?

for example

How should we adjust our asset file so the backtest is correct for trading a basket of currency, do we need to make the pip cost dynamic in the asset file, or is this already done?

Margin is always in account currency. Not in counter currency.
