Hey guys,

I use a footprint chart for my ES trading, everything is fine on that end.
But when I tried expending to NQ and YM, I'm having issues with how candles are displayed.
They are VERY long, unreadable level of long, with a crazy amount of 1 and 0 contracts, which means imbalances all over the place, while ES candles are much more condensed, shorter, with much more readable and larger contract numbers.

Is it a setting I need to adjust?
If you guys need more info to help out, let me know!
Cheers

Go to chart settings. Select the symbol tab. Increase the tick size from 0.25 to 0.5 or 1 for NQ.

What you are seeing is the correct data.

As stated above, if you want to condense the information together, then you can either change the Tick Size or change the Volume at Price Multiplier for Intraday Charts. Refer to the information here:
Chart Settings: Volume at Price Multiplier for Historical/Intraday Chart (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Chart Data >> Volume at Price menu)
