Scaling number bars quickly

I use a single number bar chart linked to a quote window for quick symbol changing. Given the various price differences between stocks $5-$1000 I wanted to add 'Volume at Price Multiplier' to my control bar with several presents (1, 5, 10, etc..) so when I switch between symbols I can rescale the chart. Is this possible or is there a better way to do this? (maybe a way to do this programmatically based on the stock price?) Thanks

The only thing we can recommend is for you to set custom symbol settings like the Volume at Price Multiplier and tick size, for specific symbols through the Global Symbol Settings: Global Symbol Settings Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

I like this idea and I think it would work. What symbol format do I use given I use IB for execution and the SC data feed for equities? I've tried the following with TSLA as an example and can't get it to work even when I press 'apply global symbol settings' on the chart. TSLA TSLA-STK-SMART/NASDAQ-USD TSLA-STK-SMART-USD I attached a screen shot of the settings where I'm using the default from SC with a change in the volume multiplier. Thanks! |

I duplicated the settings from MSFT which you have in the symbol settings list and tried changing the volume multiplier. I've 'applied symbol setting to the chart' and tried disconnecting/reconnecting to the data feed and I still can't get it to work. Can you confirm this feature works? I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Thanks
