decimal places on y axis of chart

[35trader]

Can the y axis decimal places on the chart be adjusted, for example FX is set at 4 places , can this be changed to 5 places?

Hello 35trader,

Thank you for your post.

This would require altering the Tick Size of the instrument you are viewing by going to the NinjaTrader Control Center > Tools > Instrument Manager > search for the instrument you wish to alter > double click on the instrument on the search results to open the Instrument Editor > once the Instrument Editor opens you can adjust the Tick Size in the Definition tab > OK.

Changing the Forex instrument from 0.0001 to 0.00001 will adjust the decimal place, but you may wish to change to another Tick Size.

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.

I tried this already and switched to .00001, but the chart y axis still plotted in a 4 decimal number.

Hello 35trader,

Can you please go to Control Center-->Tools-->Options-->Data-tab and set 'Quote currencies (FX) in' to TenthPip. Forex instruments will now use 5 decimals.

Subsequently charts will reflect prices in 5 decimals providing on the scale. If you do not see 5 decimals initially, please click and hold your left mouse button on the right side on the price axis and move upwards.

Dear Jason

I have done both things and still the price only has 4 decimals. Why this could be?

You can see in the video above that I move the right bar up also.

Hello Belikewater,

Can you please tell me to what data feed provider you connect in NinjaTrader.

Do you see 5 decimals if you select a forex instrument in the Dynamic SuperDOM?

[BelikeWater]

Dear Jason

Im using no real live data right now, just using an historical data that I downloaded from Kinetick.

[NinjaTrader_Jason]

It works fine on my end. Can you please double check if 'Quote currencies (FX) in' is set to TenthPip.

[BelikeWater]

yes TenthPip

[NinjaTrader_Jason]

Can you please shut down NinjaTrader and navigate to the folder below.

C:\-->Users-->*Windows user account*-->Documents-->NinjaTrader 7-->db

Delete the "cache" folder.

Start NinjaTrader and create a new EURUSD chart. Check if prices show a fifth decimal when adjusting the price axis.

[BelikeWater]

I have tried and is the same. It only shows 4 decimals

[NinjaTrader_Jason]

Does it work if you create a new chart for a different forex instrument?

Do you connect to the free Kinetick EOD connection or do you have a subscription?

If you go to Control Center-->Tools-->Instrument Manager, what tick size do you see listed for the EURUSD?

[BelikeWater]

Sorry!

It was the TickSize, was in 0,0001 I though I changed them all.

Sorry for loosing your time...
