# translating performance from EUR to USD [closed]

can someone please let me know how to translate a performance return from USD to EUR. For instance, I have a time series (return) over 7 years from an US hedge fund and would like to translate it into EUR return. I am not interested in any form of hedging, I just need the return to be denominated in EUR

Thank you very much!

Then you compute the EUR returns from these EUR prices by the usual formula $\frac{P_{t+1}-P_t}{P_t}$
P.S. If you do the algebra on the above procedure you will see that the EUR returns are $-1+\frac{e_{t-1}}{e_t}(1+r_t)$ for t = 1 to n, which however may be more difficult to remember than the straightforward steps above.
