Hi,

I have a doubt about "Trade and Quote Symbol" usage:

Would it not make sense for the chart using this feature, to have the "currency value of tick size" to the actual traded symbol ?

Example:

LMAX has a GDAXI and GDAXIm. Both are the same, but GDAXI is a 2.5 times contract and GDAXIm is a normal contract. Would it not make sense when using GDAXI symbol with "Trade and Quote Symbol" for GDAXIm, for the "currency value of tick size" be the GDAXIm value ( 1 contract, not 2.5, applied to chart when clicking "Apply global settings" ) ? That would display the proper profit or loss.

Is it OK to modify "currency value of tick size" manually to the underlying traded symbol ?

Thanks.
