My Default Currency is Canadian and Value is set at 1.000
I chose to USD, Euro and Pound Sterling as well as CAD for the store; and I searched the current rates and put those correct amounts into the Value area. I tested the cart and the exchange rates were working perfectly. Then I set the Currency Updater to Auto Update for future use.
Now - when I buy 2 items worth Canadian $96.85 which is the correct price in Default. It shows as $3.47 USD - which is TOTALLY WRONG! It should be something like $71.96. This is because the Auto Updater changed the USD Value to 0.03192756 as of April 24. This is incorrect. The other currencies - Euro and Pound Sterling - are also now updated incorrectly.
What has happended? Did I configure something incorrectly? I cannot trust to use the Auto Currency Updater as it is; and will have to manually update currencies or else only use the Default.
Thanks for assistance.

Tonight the currencies are showing correctly as to exchange!! USD is miraculously set to 0.74186176 instead of 0.03192756 as previously. I am happy and will keep checking it to make sure it is stable. I feel I know what the issue was related to though. Canadian currency had been shown as CAN and not CAD previously and it may have taken a short itme to update.
Thanks for your time. Without the forum I likely would not have been able to fix issues.
