We need more information on what exactly is not correct when you say "how to reset my coffee charts to read the currently correct pricing format".

If you can give us a screenshot, that would be very helpful. But what exactly is not correct? And exactly what symbol are you using for the chart?

All pricing data used to come from IB as such "1.7550" now everything comes in as "175.50". My charts recognize the first formatting example here "1.7550" not the "175.50" how do I get them to reconcile so I don't have a string of dots across the bottom of the chart then the past bar posted in the format "175.50"?

The symbol is "KC" for ICE Arabica Coffee. All historical data is posted and drawn correctly with the price formatting as "1.7550" The last bar on the chart uses pricing formatting of "175.50" therefor I get a string of dots across the bottom of my chart with price formatting "1.7550" and then a current bar O-H-L-C with the price formatting of "175.50".

Make sense? Something is lost in translation of the price formatting for the current bar on a chart relevant to the historical data. I have deleted and reloaded chart data a couple times and it still downloads as described.

IB quoted ICE Coffee futures in the "1.7550" formatting for years, but within the last month or two it has been changed over with price quotes as "175.50" formatting. It screwed up the charts.

This should now be resolved. Do the following:

Follow the instructions here to update the Symbol Settings:
Global Symbol Settings: Update Global Symbol Settings


After that go to the chart and fully re-download the data:

Re-download all the data in the chart by going to the chart and selecting "Edit >> Delete All Data and Download". You just need to do this once per symbol and not for each chart.
