"Read" scale on Price Axis

[cre8able]

Is there a way to read the increments in the price axis?

I'm making a QQQ price overlay so I can see the QQQ price relative to the NQ price on the NQ price axis. That way I can easily see the QQQ price and NQ price on the same chart. I realize the bars won't be perfectly accurate but they will be close enough for what I need.

I'd like to line up the QQQ price next to each NQ price but would need to know what the price axis spacing is. I know I can find high and low, but I also need the axis increment

is that available information?

Hello cre8able,

There is not a supported direct way to get the displayed values on the price scale.

From the ChartScale you can access the MaxValue and MinValue.

You can convert a price to a y value with GetYByValue().
