Hello, I'm trading the micros and charting on the minis. In chart settings (main) my symbol is ESM22_FUT_CME and below that I have MESM22_FUT_CME with the use as trade only symbol checked. When I check and uncheck the box The price changes about 10 points. Is this normal? I thought the prices were close. I had no issues with the prior contract and just rolled. If I sim trade on the actual MESM22_FUT_CME chart, it seems off from the mini.

Thank you for the great support.

Double check that both of those symbols are actually indeed the June contract.

They should be very close to each other. The same or within a tick or two.

I went into setting, find symbols for both. I believe they are the correct June contracts. If I check and uncheck the trade only box, the price jumps around the 10 points. The mini is correct, when I check the box for the micros, it jumps...

Check these multipliers:
Chart Settings: Real-Time Price Multiplier (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Symbol >> Symbol Settings menu) (should be .01)

Chart Settings: Trade and Current Quote Symbol Price Multiplier (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Symbol >> Symbol Settings menu)
(This one should be 0)

Thank you, those were set fine. I believe I solved my issues by unchecking 'use custom symbol settings values' in global setting - symbol settings. Now the values between the mini and micro are nearly the same.

Ok check the custom settings you have used for both of those symbols to see what you have changed and then undo those changes by simply using the default value.
