Hi All

When setting up a chart for something like $TICK, $ADD it only plots the positive value & just flatlines when zero & nothing plots negative.

In "Scaling" ive changed "Range" > "Fixed" to show a min: negative number which fixes the scale on right side to show negatives but the "indicator" doesnt plot negative.

Am just getting back into using Tradestation so this is likley something very obvious I'm missing but having clicked around cant just get it to work !

Any help appreciated
Cheers

Etisan,

what do you mean with "indicator"? When I open a new 5 minute chart for $TICK for example it shows both positive and negative values for the bars.

Hi

Thanks for your reply...By "indicator" I just mean the bars that are plotted eg 1 min bars.

The first pic is how it opens by default, with "Scaling" as "Range" - "Automatic" - "Date range on screen"

The second pic is if I manually change "Scaling" to "Fixed" & input a range with negative number from min -1000 to 1000 max

It just flatlines at 0 & doesnt plot anything negative

Cheers

Etisan,

1 min $Tick opens at -1165 for today and all bars are negative for the first sixteen minutes, and I would suggest posting the question in the support section of the official Tradestation forum where TS employees should be able to help you.

Go to this url and in the middle of the page is a tradestation workspace you can download for free. In that workspace, it has a tick chart that is working properly.
search indicators by harvey cumulative tick


Middle of the page under sample workspace.

On another subject, have you found a free cumulative tick indicator for tradestation for free?
