How to increase the fractional digits in custom indicator chart
23 Feb 2013, 22:15

Hello all,

when a custom indicator will be displayed on a chart, the fractional digits will be rounded to 2 digits by default. Using the same indicator (i. e. True Range) provided by cTrader the the displayed fractional digits are 4 (see screenshot below).

I could not find any capability to customize or to overwrite the default number of displayed fractional digits. In often cases it is necessary to see a more precise value on the chart than displayed only with 2 fractional digits.

How can I customize the number of fractional digits displayed on the chart?

Thank you very much in advance.

regards, Hugoman

You can use this code:

    [Indicator(ScalePrecision = 5)]

See scaleprecision in the API Reference section.

Hello Support,

thanks a lot for this information. Exactly what I was looking for. Seems to be very fresh, I was not aware of it before (or it was not obvious to me). Anyhow, thanks a lot.
