Hi SC,
Is there a way to reference one futures contract (Emini) to trade another (Emicro)?
Thanks,
Dennis

Yes. Use this setting:
Chart Settings: Trade and Current Quote Symbol (text box) (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Symbol >> Symbol menu)

Quick question in regards to this ticket, if I may.

When we configure chart to show one instrument and trade another one, what ChartDOM market depth is showing?

For example, let's say we plot ES chart and want to trade MES. Do we see MES market depth in this configuration? If it is MES market depth, is there a way to see ES market depth?

Thanks

When I did this I saw the ES data but trades did not execute correctly. I switch to just the micro and did backtesting (30 days) with just the micro.
Hope this helps.
