I just realised I used Symbol.Bid instead of exchangeSymbol.Bid.

I still have the 3 errors from Account and MarketData, that I can't use for some reason, do I need to pass them to the method instead of using it directly inside ?

Hi a.fernandez.martinez,

Can you please post the full cBot code in text, not as an image?

Hi a.fernandez.martinez, 

The reason you are getting the errors is that you are using Account and MarketData properties in a class where they do not exist. These properties exists only in classes inheriting from Robot. If you want to use them in Currency class you should pass them as parameters.
