Currency conversions and IB

  1. I have a base currency of US$, 200k. Using IDEALPRO I sell us$100,00 and buy Yen. According to how I read this I have now made a currency conversion and can now wire Yen to my Yen based bank account in Japan. However, when i click View, Account, I see no Yen under Market value, but I do have an unwanted position. Where is the answer to this problem. Or have I done everything correctly and when i put thru the wire instruction my Yen will appear and get transferred?
