In Excel, I can download a European index and translate the price in USD by
adding "FX=USD" at the end of the BDH request.
=BDH("SX5E Index","PX_LAST","12/1/2013","","FX=USD")
How can I change the currency with "FX=USD" in R?
I have hundreds of series to download and it's not always obvious what
currency they trade in (it's not always stocks). Also I know I can do that
in Matlab, but I would prefer to use R.
