Post From: Trade DOM “Horizontal Grid Line Increment” Settings – Instrument With Four Decimal Numbers

To avoid the duplication of prices, you need to set the Price Display Format to .00001

Sorry, I think you are missing my point.


If I set the Price Display Format to .00001 and keep the Tick Size set to .0001 then the Trade DOM will show one more figure (0) at the end of each Price (i.e. 1.31560 instead of 1.3156). I could manage to trade like that but this way the Horizontal Grid lines still keep "jumping" up and down anyway, the same way as I described in post #1.



If I set the Price Display Format to .00001 and set the Tick Size to .00005 (in order to get the .5 tick) then the Trade DOM will show one more figure (0 or 5) at the end of each Price (i.e. 1.31560 / 1.31565).

This way the Horizontal Grid will be stable every 25 ticks (not 12.5) and half of the Trade DOM prices will be false figures because the instrument doesn't have them available.

This option is obviously not a solution as I can't trade from a Trade Dom with nonexistent prices.



In short:

What I really just need is to have the Horizontal Grid lines showing on every 12.5 ticks (stable, not "jumping" up and down) in a Trade DOM with E6 Futures (instrument with four decimal numbers).


Will you please see what you can do to prevent these Horizontal Grid lines to "jump" up and down when moving the Trade DOM ladder?


As I explained in post #1 I have a Trade DOM with the Horizontal Grid lines showing on every 12.5 ticks with CL Futures (instrument with two decimal numbers) and the Grid lines are stable (they don't jump up and down when I move the DOM ladder).


For better understanding the problem please see the short video attached in post #1.


Thank you.
