Renko bars problem on EUR/USD

Postby Erik Pepping » 31 Aug 2011

I have made a eur/USD charts with renko bars. The 15 pip bars are not correct.
The 5 pip bars ssem to be. Look at both pictures attached.
Since I want to use 15 pip renko bars this is not good ? What's wrong ?
The renko 1 is the 15 pips bars. There is aboput 2 bars per day. = Not correct.
The renko 5 pips look better, but i'm not sure it is correct either, in MT the picture is completely different

Hello, Erik. As I can see from the attached screenshot the price scale for the symbol EUR/USD is 1/10.000. That is why when you select the 5 pip bar you have 50 pip bar (and 15 pip are 150pip). Please go to the Quote Manager and double click on the EUR/USD symbol. On the second tab called "Settings" please set the price scale to 1/100.000. Please make a right click on the chart and go to the Format Instrument window and set the resolution to 0.00005 for 5 pip and 0.00015 for 15 pip. Now the 5 and 15 pip bar should be plotted properly.
