                hello, i cancelled my equties data because i could not get the platform to run like it does with futures. i was wondering if you could help me figure it out so i could sign up for equities again!  basically anytime i load a TPO chart there is horrible lag.. would you be able to recommend to me which settings to adjust to make it run the best without losing any data? i hope you had a great holiday weekend! - Jake https://www.sierrachart.com/Download.php?Folder=TicketingSystem&download=63428  |

                There is no reason why there would be any difference in the way the chart behaves simply because it is an equities chart instead of a futures chart.

                The Tick Size is determined by the instrument and is not something you should change. As to the Letter/Block Price Increment in Ticks, that is something you will have to figure out for yourself, in terms of the tradeoff of the larger letters/blocks versus the underlying data and what you want to see.
