Rounding to nearest TickSize increment

[ctrlbrk]

I need some help, how can I round a value down to the nearest ticksize increment?

ie, assuming TickSize of 0.25, values of:

1.51 => 1.50
1.74 => 1.50
1.26 => 1.25
1.01 => 1.00


Have searched the forum and found a couple posts on rounding, but they didn't seem to address this. Also couldn't find anything useful on Google for this type of behavior, because I am not exactly sure what to search for other than 'math.round', and haven't found the answer there yet.

I figure someone here already has the code or a procedure written.

Thanks,
Mike

((int)(value/ticksize))*ticksize

you can also try this:

Multiply it by four, then round it, then divide it by four.
