In the Zig-Zag Study "Settings and Inputs", when I've chosen "Yes" for "Format Volume Using Large Number Suffix (K/M), the Suffix "K" is not utilized for "four"-figured/single digit (i.e. 1 thru 9)thousands, or "K's". Is it possible to change that to include 1K thru 9.9 K? For those who use volumetric "patterns" or waves, etc. and rely on visual "quick/fast thinking" types of recognition and differentiation, it is much easier (from a visual Gestalt point of view)to keep "apples in the apple basket" and "oranges in the orange basket" when making split second comparisons of relationships of "baskets" of the same kind of "fruit"(i.e. 1-999, "K"'s, "M"'s). "K's" seem to be very common, if not the most common Zig-Zag or Wave volume, for many of the widely traded markets/symbols for day traders. To quickly compare the "visual" text print 2.37K to 45.4K (quickly comparing 2+ t0 45+) is much more helpful, efficient and emphatic than seeing something like 2370 and comparing that to 45. "Emphatic" is the operative word here from a "perception" point of view. Obviously, only a miniscule amount of mental effort is needed to consciously compare the latter, but I feel those who have trained to operate on an almost subliminal basis for those comparisons whilst simultaneously contemplating other data inputs, such a change in labeling could be most helpful and appreciated.
