ATM setup

[zeller4]

Hello,

I'm setting up an ATM (not strategy) using 6J and attempting to set the quantity of ticks for SL and PT. In this 6J setup, when I type in 10 ticks, it automatically sets to .000010 for 10 ticks SL and .000004 for TP of 4 ticks.
see screenshot...

I've never seen this behavior before. It seems to work for 6E and other instruments.

Not sure if there's an option to set to tickcount for the instrument.
thx

Hello zeller4,

Thank you for your post.

From the screen shot you provided it appears that the ATM Parameter type is set to 'Price'.

Please right click in the Chart Trader section of your chart and select Properties. From the Chart Trader Properties menu search for 'Parameter type' and set the field to 'Ticks', press 'OK'

You should now be able to set up your ATM Strategy based on Ticks.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.
