This section shows your Forex transactions, including any activity in a non-functional currency. This includes opening and closing transactions, which include closed lot details. If there is more than one closed lot, you can expand the row to display closed lot details.

Data is based on your functional currency. Totals for Proceeds, Basis and Realized P/L in your functional currency appear at the bottom of the section.

The following rules apply to this section:

Data is available from January 1, 2013.
This section is not available in consolidated statements.
This section is available in Advisor client statements but not in Advisor statements.

Proceeds and Cost values are computed as follows:

Proceeds will always be positive and Basis (Cost Basis) will always be negative. The open lot cost basis will match the transaction cost basis for buys and sells and will match the transaction proceeds for cover and sell short.
For a transaction that is partially opening and partially closing, the row will display both O and C in the Codes column and will include an Opening Lot Summary row in the expanded lot details.
