Hello,

I want to square my chart so that 1 unit of price equals 1 unit of time. I have read the SC Chart Scaling documentation where it seems I should be using the "X and Y Constant Relationship" feature, but I can't get it to work as intended. It seems I am misunderstanding the procedure and setting up wrongly.

Example: For CL futures I would like $0.10 of price to equal 1 daily bar. I would like this relationship to remain constant. How do I setup? If I could get steps to setup this one example then I would be able to go from here on my own.

Any assistance that can be provided is much appreciated.

The documentation for this is here and verified to work correctly:
Chart Scale and Scale Adjusting: X & Y Constant Relationship Scaling

We are going to do some updates to it though to make it more complete.

Here are the updated instructions:

Chart Scale and Scale Adjusting: X & Y Constant Relationship Scaling

One thing to understand is that the timescale in the relationship, is measured by chart bars. Not by actual time.
