Hi,

Tick size is set to 0.01 under chart settings, yet the spreadsheet study shows 0.0099999998 as tick size. The cell is read-only so I can't change it. Instrument is Bund futures.

So how do I adjust the tick size?

Regards

That is still the correct value. That is equivalent to .01.

If you are referencing J21 in formulas but want to remove the floating point imprecision, put this in cell H21:
=1/ROUND(1/J21,0)
then reverence H21 instead.
