Please show the total value of a position in the home currency

In both cTrader and cTrader Web, the absolute (leveraged) value of a prospective/open position isn't shown anywhere.

When I'm placing (or modifying) a trade - via the "Market/Pending Order" window - I want to know how much it's worth all up in my home currency. The same goes for the 'Positions' tab in the main window: this information needs to be listed there as well.

One of the things I like about Plus500 is that it tells me exactly how much my position is (or will be) worth in my native AUD. As you can see in the below screenshot, the 20 US-30 (Dow) contracts I have open there are worth AU$53k in total.

Unfortunately, no such figure is shown in the below (cTrader Web) screenshot. The dollar value of the stop-loss is mentioned, so why isn't the total value of the position itself? The user shouldn't have to multiply the buy rate by the quantity manually each time!
