Currently, you're probably asking why does he have the top field hidden and showing the USD price field 3 if he wan't it shown in non-expanded mode..... well therein lies the problem, currently i have the correction in the currency set to 1 to force GBP value to be for one bitcoin, all is ok with that option. (that can be 0 is showing the custom top field, but if not then it has to be one)

But, when i change the settings of the custom top field to display primary exchange rate, it does this



Now it's always done this, and i can't remember if we'd spoken about this before (if we have, accept my apologies) to be honest, i'm still not convinced it's not me messing something up

Hey w.a.y.n.e., nice to hear from you again!

Not sure if I have understood the issue correctly, but let's see if I we can untangle this. Your bottom field seems to be multiplying primary and secondary exchange rate.

Can you try setting your top field to display secondary exchange rate (and be sure to set secondary exchange URL as well), and using primary exchange rate (and correction 1) in your bottom field? Bottom field is calculated so you need to make sure USD and GBP rates are fetched separately, one from primary, and other from secondary exhange URL.
