Money shows all potential gains or losses in the base currency, I think.

Default How to track foriegn investment correctly?

The base-currency of my Money is NTD (Taiwan Dollor) and I have a account for
US stock (which's currency is USD). The problem is, when calculating
investment gains (in the Portfolio Manager), Money will combine the change of
exchange rate (between USD and NTD) along with the change of stock price.

For example, if my stock is up by 2% but USD to NTD is down by 2%, my gain
will be 0%. How to setup Money so my gain will be 2%?

Any idea will be appreciated, thanks
