Working on a crypto currencies DTC server. When calling MARKET_DATA_UPDATE_TRADE, can I send in volume with decimal places? Does SC handle that ok?

Sierra Chart can only work with Integers. The Volume Display Format setting in Global Settings >> Symbol Settings will then adjust those integers into fractional values when displayed. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2017-06-06 06:39:33

just to see I understand say we want to capture volume with 2 digit precision. If volume is 5.75, we would be sending 575 to SC through the DTC api In the symbol settings, I would set the value format to 0.01 I should then expect to see 5.75 in the T&S window?
