Hello,

Is there a place to set the default for the price display/tick size format and to
uncheck the auto-set from datafeed as a default.

I think I am missing some alerts on the low priced stocks that trades in 10th's of a penny.

Many thanks,

Cy

Yes this is done through the Global Symbol Settings:
https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_GlobalSymbolSettings.php

By default, Auto Set from Data Feed will be disabled as long as there are Symbol Settings defined for the symbol or symbol pattern. There is also a setting for this in the Global Symbol Settings for the symbol.

Thanks---so it must be done on a symbol by symbol basis only?

You need to use a Symbol Pattern:

These patterns should already be listed. If not, follow the instructions here:

We see you are using TD Ameritrade.

So if I have the price format changed and the tick format---shouldn't the order box see this?
