Hello,
I use IB for options trading (what I meanly do) but love SC for charting (and play with futures). however, I noticed that the quotes of %change in IB is different than SC data feed %Change. I contacted IB first to see if there was a setting (knowing that you are not fond of them) but there isn't.

I am wondering why is that and how to make sure the %change I have on SC is right (the quote itself is identical)

Thank you
P.S - Pls don't make this about IB issues. this is a simple question about this % change

The percent change in Sierra Chart is not a field of data from Interactive Brokers. It is calculated. The formula is here:
