Hi all Anyone here can help me to change the tick size for NQ? On 5 min chart, the bars are so huge so I cant follow. I went and changed the tick size from 0.25000 to 0.5 or even 1 and the bars look OK but somehow the tick size gets reset to 0.25000 I also read than I also need to change the "price display format and the currency value per tick. Help will be appreciated. Thanks |

So, I'm in front of NQ chart settings and I manually change the tick size from 0.250000 to 0.5 or 1, I click Apply Alland the chart changes but the value of tick size in the chart settings get reset to 0.250000 The same if I directly change in "symbol settings" dialog. |

if I set tick size to 1, what should be the price display format and the currency value per tick?

I click Apply Alland the chart changes but the value of tick size in the chart settings get reset to 0.250000 Are you using any Chart Linking options:Working With Charts: Chart Linking We recommend keeping the same Price Display Format of .01. Currency Value Per Tick needs to be increased by 4 times: if I set tick size to 1, what should be the price display format and the currency value per tick?

to be honest I gave up. It wont save my tick size unless you click OK (not apply all) because after clicking Apply All, you need to reload and recalculate (to get the numbers) so the tick size gets reset to 0.25 now, it saved my new tick size but wont go back to 0.25 even I manually set back 0.25 |

Disable all of the Chart Linking options to rule that out as a cause: Chart Settings: Linking And disable the use of Custom Symbol Settings: Global Symbol Settings: Disabling Custom Symbol Settings Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
