Here you can check the ratio for one contract in MultiCharts.<div style="background-color: #E3FBE5;">'''Note''': MultiCharts does not support fractional shares. For trading crypto symbols Contracts Ratio was added into ByBit broker settings. For example, the Contracts Ratio for BTCUSDT is 0.000001.

=== Open Positions tab ===
As ByBit Spot operates with wallets, MultiCharts has to emulate positions.<br>
The first time you connect to the ByBit Spot broker profile in MultiCharts, MultiCharts considers the position to be flat. When you open a position in MultiCharts, it will be displayed in this tab.<br>
* Click '''Lookup''' to emulate positions based on the orders sent from MultiCharts.<div style="background-color: #E3FBE5;">Note: If a position was opened/changed outside MultiCharts, MultiCharts will not be aware of it. </div>
* Click '''Recalculate''' to recalculate all the positions based on orders starting from the set date.
To recalculate a position for a specific symbol click the button next to it.<br>
* Click '''Add''' to select symbols to add to the positions list.
<div style="background-color: #E3FBE5;">'''Note:''' The position on Spot accounts is emulated on MultiCharts end. After you open the position, its volume will always be less than the one you specified while opening the position due to the commission taken on Spot accounts.
In order to close this position properly, please use [[From_Broker_To_Strategy_MP_Synchronizer|From Broker To Strategy MP Synchronizer]].</div>
<div style="background-color: #F0F8FF;">After the broker profile is set up, you can select it for trading, see the '''[[How to Select a Broker Account For Trading]]''' guide.</div>
