Description

On a FDAXZ1 chart I used the context menu entry "Format Chart Trading..." to change the display unit for P/L to "Point". However the open P/L on the chart for the FDAXZ1 futures contract was displayed in pips (here ticks) after that and the tick value of the FDAXZ1 contract is 0.5 points. That is obviously a wrong and unexpected behaviour.
 
Maybe You can add the option to display open P/L in ticks, too, but when "Point" is chosen one should expect to get points and not anything else.
 

Steps to reproduce this issue

Use MCDT 7.1.70.201 Beta 1 on a PC with Windows XP Professional SP3 and an Open E Cry demo account.

If the settings are correct, please, attach a picture domenstrating the issue.
If the settings are incorrect, please, change them, reload the chart and reconnect broker profile.
