-Using "Auto-Set From Data Feed" for NQ, the Real-Time Price Multiplier becomes 0.009999999776482582. Is this correct?

This is due to floating point inaccuracies. It is not "wrong", but we will see if there is something we can do to not have it display like that.


-Employing the DOM compression method you shared above, I can't get my DOM Volume-By-Price study to compress to two ticks while also using the VBP reset button, which sets the VBP to "From Start Date Time to End." Is there a workaround? (I use this VBP to show delta-by-price, so it would be great it if matched the compression of the DOM).

The Volume by Price study input for "Ticks per Volume Bar" can only be set to even multiples of the setting for the "Volume at Price Multiplier". Typically, the Volume at Price Multiplier is set to 1, so any value can be set in the Ticks per Volume Bar. But if you have it set to another value, then this would be why you can not change it.

Another possible reason is that if you have the Volume by Price study on a Trading DOM, then the Volume by Price "Ticks per Volume Bar" is forced to a value of 1.
