Can anybody share their chart settings for their candlesticks. The candlesticks in multicharts look horrendous, is this just the way it works?
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?

Show a picture of what you are seeing... That would be easier.

The only difference is that NT candles have a black outline. Add that to your candles it should look right!

There should be properties for the chart where you can change it.
