Which setting did you set specifically? And what is the exact symbol did you set it on in the symbol settings? Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

That setting applies to ALL symbols. It is not specific to the selected symbol at that time. So you should be limited to a maximum quantity of 5 for all symbols. Note that that setting does not work in Simulation Mode. We wonder if this was what you were doing.
