Hello ericson,

Thank you for your post.

When you refer to the Value do you mean changing from a 1000 Volume to something like a 2000 Volume chart?

Can you provide further details on your inquiry?

I look forward to your response.

I cant enter values higher than 100,000,000 with that bar type. I'm dealing forex with much higher volumes. I would like to enter much higher values. What modification to the script needs to be made?

Hello ericson,

Thank you for your response.

The Value cannot be changed in code to support a higher value and a new property to support a higher value could not be added to the code. I have forwarded this as a feature request to development.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

What do i change using a custom bar type script using the same code. Why is the value input limited in the first place?

Hello ericson,

Thank you for your response.

Technically the value is limited only to int.MaxValue. Please refer to the attached example. Please look at lines 26 and 87.

The request to use larger values has been assigned the internal ID of SFT-2163.

Ok thanks. Looks like the max is of the int.
