Im setting up my charts with LMAX and my charts seem to compress when I have some studies on them. Volume by price is the culprit I guess. I dont have this issue with AUD or JPY pairs so it has something to do with ticksize Anybody got an idea??

Cheers,

Giacomo

I don't use SC, but a quick look at your chart and I see the scaling is based on indicators, you have to find the scaling based on price

Do you have to have a live LMAX account to have LMAX feed with SC?
