Hello, I'm using the Chart Calculator on an ES Chart (ESM20_FUT_CME). I'm measuring from 2906.50 up to 1940. The DIT is correctly shown as +134, the PD is correctly shown as +33.50, the CV however is showing +10050.00. This would of course be 75 per tick, and obviously incorrect. Chart>Chart Settings>Tick Size is set to .25 Chart>Chart Settings>Advanced Settings 2>Currency Value per Tick is set to 12.5. Global Settings>Symbol Settings> Tick Size is set to .25 and Currency Value Per Tick is set to 12.5 Before sending this I checked my CL Chart as well and found the Currency value is x3 (should be showing 800 but instead shows 2400) When I check it on a 5-Min Chart, I see a difference. My 5-Min chart shows the correct currency Value. Thoughts? |

This is not an error, that value is affected by the Trade Window order quantity. Set the order quantity to 1.
