Post From: Overlay Bar Study - Question Re "Multiplier" input

Hi,

I don't think I have grasped what the "Multiplier" input in this study does yet.

I had thought it would be a similar concept to spread charts where you might set the multiplier to compensate for the difference in tick value between two symbols.

However, from my experimentation overlaying a Bund chart onto a Stoxx chart it doesn't seem to make any difference what i set the multiplier, whether it be 1, 100, or 0.01.
I should state that I am using the overlay in the main part of the chart (ie area 1 and not beneath the chart)

Can I ask whether this is an irrelevant input and the automatic scaling used by SC is so good that if I just want to use the overlay bar study for correlations/inverse correlations between two or three symbols I can leave the Multiplier at its default settings ?

Thank you in advance (PS it seems to be a lot better than the Multicharts overlay feature)
