Post From: Displaying PnL currency values for trade symbol instead of chart symbol

I am trading MES using an ES chart. Currently, the profit/loss currency amount on the chart displays ES figures rather than MES, e.g. $75 instead of $7.50. Is there a way to display the MES profit/loss instead of ES?
You need to update the Currency Value per Tick and set it to the value of the "Trade and Current Quote Symbol". Refer to the information here: Chart Settings: Trade and Current Quote Symbol (text box) (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Symbol >> Symbol menu) I've also noticed that when the size of an open position is 2 or greater, the value displayed is $0.01 greater or less than the correct value depending on win/loss status.
This can happen, as it is about rounding and floating point values. It is not anything to be concerned with. For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
