I have some bitcoins in an exchange and I found today that, without any transactions being made, the quantity has gone down.

I have contacted the exchange who have said:

Quote
the balance varies according to the prices that are floating

Is this correct? In my view the quantity of bitcoins I have should not fluctuate, only the value of said coins. Or am I missing something?

Any explanations would be great!
Actually, I believe that it is the price may fluctuate, but not the number of coins themselves. I think it may even be associated with any type of fraud either.
I do not trust wallets that provide exchanges. It is not the first time I've heard about what users are deceived.
