Save your brain and try to forget all the bullshit that the "great gurus" here have managed to advise you. For some reason, it is often the ignoramuses and the ignorant who lecture others on this forum and in life in general. In order not to give such "gurus" a reason to convert the topic to the level of personal insults with puffed up cheeks and personal attacks, I will not name the authors of these absurd rubbish. I will simply address the substance of some of the "great revelations": - "zeroing in on currencies", creating a currency-neutral portfolio - an unrealizable delusion that has been quoted repeatedly and none of the peddlers bothered to substantiate the tale with calculations; - diversification of risks within one trading account - fiction; - using a large number of simultaneously traded instruments does not help diversification. And now I will repeat the question specifically to you - how can you make a profit from a locked position (which is what diversification essentially aims to do)? If you do not have a clear answer, there is no point in looking for ways to diversify.
Дмитрий: Why? Where is the USD in the AUDNZD cross? If the Aussie and the NZD are equally correlated to the dollar - where is the dollar?
I wonder in what currency you then calculate e.g. the pip value of this pair. Or if you open a trade in this currency pair, what do you calculate profit/loss in?
You are contradicting yourself when you say "the Aussie and the NZ is equally correlated to the dollar" and then you ask "- where is the dollar? If the dollar is not there, then how does this pair correlate to it, if it is not in the pair's value calculation?

And that when converting the value into the currency of the deposit, the value in dollars is counted first.
For example: Take GBP/CHF, exchange rate 1.4400.
Pip value = position volume * pip value * current quote of base currency against USD / current exchange rate of the currency pair (cross-rate) For GBP/CHF: 10 000 * 0.0001 * 1.5800 (GBP/USD rate) / 1.4400 = 1.1$
