Price Display problem

CQG data displayed Comex Silver incorrectly. Symbol settings are correct but price data is off by a factor of 100, making symbol mapping and trading impossible.

Hello masterchanger,

Different data providers can send prices in various formats to MC for the same markets. At the moment MC does not have such feature general for all data providers / brokers. Please vote for the respective feature request.

I'm sorry but proper price display is a basic function that should be standard in a package such as Multicharts by its 8.8 version!

To have to vote for this as a feature is unbelievable, this is a bug not a unimplemented "feature"

I am disappointed you clearly dont realize this.

You provide the ability to change symbol settings on every instrument did someone have to request that as a "feature" , for each symbol before that "feature" was implemented??
I doubt that, this issue is the same thing but we as users are unable to correct this and rely on the development team to view this issue in its proper context and take errors in basic data presentation as a violation of the core competency of Multicharts.

I'm mean Multicharts bills itself a professional level trading software and should perform as such.

Sorry for the double post,
This lacking feature applies to eSignal data, IB data, CQG data and has been known for years.

Users if you read this thread please vote for this feature!

Thank You

MC

At the moment i cannot tell you in what exact version of MC the global multiplier feature will be available, but it is in the list for implementation. I believe it will be in MC 9.1 or next after that one.
