Hello, jimm88

“Net Change” shows the result of calculation for the particular instrument added to the Scanner window (Watchlist) only.
In order to get results for different instruments from other data feeds you need to add all them into the Scanner window:

In the Scanner Window, Net Change is calculated according to the formula Last – Prev for CQG data feed. We have checked on our end that the calculation is correct. e.g. in the screenshot 3001.25 - 3003.50 = -2.25.
I'm afraid we don’t have information how the Net Change is calculated in other platforms and which values they use for calculation. Also, if one uses different type of data (different data providers, resolution, quote field, etc.), it may cause the difference of Net Change values.
