3. Volume Multiplier tab:

For cryptocurrencies volume value which is displayed on charts will be divided by the multiplier specified for an instrument in the data feed settings in order to get real volume. In MultiCharts volume cannot be expressed by a fraction. Volume Multiplier is used to display an integral value instead of 0.
By default, Volume Multiplier is equal to 10000. It is possible to set up Volume Multiplier individually for each instrument depending on the traded volume of this instrument. In order to do it one needs to type in the multiplier value in the corresponding field next to an instrument or modify it using the up and down arrows.
You can learn more about the Volume Multiplier feature in the corresponding wiki section.
