Post From: 6E/M6E issue when using a study

Hi there,

I am making some tests in order to start trading the 6E - Euro FX and its micro contract, the M6E.

For these tests, I am using the Simple System Trading Auto trading study.

To use the M6E, I set it as the Trade and Current Quote Symbol and checked the box "Use as trade only symbol". Then, I did what is recommended in the section right below these instructions:

Chart Settings: Limit Price Displayed to N Right Characters (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Display >> Chart Display Items menu)

and set the Trade and Current Quote Symbol Price Multiplier to 1.

With that, every time an order is placed using the SST Auto Trading study, all orders get instantly closed at an illogical price. In the activity log, I see that the entry price has the format of 1.1465 and the exit price format is 11465.5.

Moreover, through Chart Settings >> Advanced Settings 2, I did also set the current value per tick as 6.25, which is the 6E value.

As a last attempt, I checked the value format of the study and it is set to "Inherited".

If I disable the SST Auto Trading study and manually place my orders everything works fine, as recommended at the link above.

Have you seen this type of issue when using 6E/M6E with a study before?

Let me know if you need more information from my side.

Thanks in advance.
