How Do I Change My eToro Account Currency?

Written by Mike Druttman

On eToro, you cannot change your account's currency. You can only adjust the "display currency" of your account to view your portfolio in a preferred currency. This change is purely cosmetic and does not affect the underlying currency of your trades or trading account balance, which remain in US dollars (USD).

How to Change Your Display Currency on eToro

Here’s how to switch up what you see:

1. Log in to your eToro account.
2. Head over to Settings.
3. Look under the Display tab for “Display Currency”.
4. Pick the currency you want from the list.
5. Hit save.

That’s it.

Heads-Up Before You Switch

• Everything still runs on USD: Your trades, deposits, and balance don’t change just because your display does. The numbers might look different, but the backend stays the same.
• Conversion fees may apply: If you’re depositing or withdrawing in anything other than USD, expect a currency conversion fee.

Changing the display currency helps you see your portfolio in your own terms. I find this handy for tracking value in my local currency. But let's not forget that every transaction is still executed in USD behind the scenes.

eToro is a multi-asset platform which offers both investing in stocks and cryptoassets, as well as trading CFDs.

Please note that CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. 51% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs with this provider. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work, and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money.

Copy Trading does not amount to investment advice.  The value of your investments may go up or down.  Your capital is at risk.

Don’t invest unless you’re prepared to lose all the money you invest. This is a high-risk investment and you should not expect to be protected if something goes wrong. Take 2 mins to learn more.
