I noticed that when I trade MES from an ES chart, the loss management still calculates the loss value amount based on ES points. For example, if I set the loss limit to $300, taking a loss of 6 MES points locks me out for the day. I can get around this by making the $ value 10 times, but there is an issue with the calculation. |

When using a "Trade and Current Quote Symbol" you need to adjust the "Currency Value per Tick" to be the value of the entered "Trade and Current Quote Symbol". Refer to the following: Chart Settings: Updating Currency Value per Tick for Trade Symbol For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
