First of all, congrats to the MC team for offering this new connection/ technology!
Unfortunately, the Contracts Ratio is necessary to calculate the position size of a strategy. I have been reading, on the link below, that the solution is to use the BigPointValue:
viewtopic.php?f=1&t=52991&p=137063&hili ... io#p137063
However, if I use the BigPointValue method on some Cryptos (For example XRPEUR or LTCEUR) I don’t retrieve the Contracts Ratio. The values doesn't match the Contracts Ratio. This is shown in the screenshot attached.
Is there any alternative to getting this value from the Script to calculate the position size?
Thanks.

Re: Binance Spot- Looking for a solution to get the Contracts Ratio from Script
Hi all,
A quick update:
On the Symbol settings, in order to get the BigPointValue correctly, I have tried to use the Exchange settings instead of User settings (as it can be seen on the attached screenshot) . But unfortunately the Big Point Value provided by the Exchange it does not match either the Contracts Ratio.
Any idea about how to solve this?
Thanks!

Hello Marting,
Please try to re-add the instrument from the data source as described in this guide.
In case Binance changes the contracts ratio after you added the instrument to MultiCharts, its Big Point Value stays the same until you change it manually. In this case, the BPV and Contracts Ration will differ.
We plan to improve this behavior when Binance changes the Big Point Value settings on their end so that the new value was picked up by MultiCharts when Binance changes it on their end.

Thank you very much Vlada,
It is nice to know this. I have updated the symbols and the VBP now matches the Contracts Ratio.
As a workaround, I will re-add Binance symbols frequently to avoid diffs between the BPV and the Contracts Ratio. It is great to know that this behaviour will be improved in MC. Thank you!

Hello Vlada. Is there any news on automatically detecting the Big Point Value, when Binance changes them? Thanks for the reply.
