Your account denomination

Heya all,
Just trying to get a feel for what most traders use as their account base nowadays. I've got 2 accounts, one in USD and one in CAD (Canadian citizen here). I'm contemplating a possible EUR account. What do you guys/gals think?

my account is in USD
i will open another account which will also be in USD

I believe it is better for most individual traders to use the currency of their country of residence, unless it is an exotic one. It also depends on how your broker revaluetes the results from trading.

I agree, especially on the second one. I personally have account in EUR...

My only concern with minors like CAD is that they have to go through an extra conversion step when they're not one of the paired currencies. I mostly trade EUR/USD, EUG/GBP and USD/JPY which means CAD would heavily be influenced by the USD...which at the moment looks good, but just look back to the 1.5 era of few years ago...
