Post From: Historical and Real-Time Price Multiplier Issue with Denali and Rithmic Datafeeds

Hello Sierra Chart Support,
I’m experiencing an issue with multiplier settings after switching from Denali to Rithmic for real-time data. Here’s the background:
1. Previously, I used the Denali data feed, which stored my data files with the format NQZ24-CME.
2. Recently, I switched to the Rithmic data feed, where the same files are named NQZ4.CME. I renamed the data files downloaded with Denali to match the Rithmic naming format to avoid re-downloading all historical data.
3. I expected to see the historical data from Denali on the chart, supplemented by real-time data from Rithmic. However, I noticed that the historical data appears with a multiplier of 0.01.
To address this, I tried the following:
• I set the Historical Price Multiplier to 1 in the Chart Settings, which correctly displayed the historical data.
• However, this change unexpectedly also affected the real-time data, making it appear 100 times larger than expected. I did not adjust the Real-Time Price Multiplier in Chart or Symbol Settings(default value is 0.01), but it seems linked to the historical multiplier setting.
I’m seeking a way to have the Historical Price Multiplier set to 1 (for Denali historical data) and leave the Real-Time Price Multiplier as default, i.e. 0.01(for Rithmic real-time data) without them affecting each other. Currently, adjusting the historical multiplier seems to automatically impact real-time data on the same chart.
Could you please advise on how to configure these multipliers independently for each data source, or if there’s an alternative method to ensure historical and real-time data display correctly? If this requires a specific configuration or workaround, I’d appreciate any guidance.
Thank you for your assistance!
