==Understanding Skip Identical Ticks option==
'''Skip Identical Ticks''' option allows MultiCharts to skip calculations on ticks with identical price in real-time. It significantly lowers CPU usage and increases processing speed in real-time calculation.<br>
Many ticks per second may have the same price. If an indicator uses only price data it only makes sense to recalculate it when the price changes. However, if an indicator uses volume and tick count data, it should be recalculated on every tick and ticks with the same price become vital. The majority of the indicators use only price data therefore Skip Identical Ticks option is enabled by default.<br>
<div style="background-color: #E3FBE5;">Note: Skip Identical Ticks option is available for indicators only. </div>
==Enabling/disabling the Skip Identical Ticks option==
To enable/disable the Skip Identical Ticks option:
# Insert an Indicator.<br>To learn more see [[Using Studies#Inserting Studies|Inserting Studies]]
# Open the '''Format Indicator''' window.<span>{{FormatIndicator}}</span>
# Сlick the '''Format button'''.
# Select the '''Properties''' tab.
# In the '''Advanced section''', check/uncheck the '''Skip Identical Ticks''' checkbox.
