Default sub-pip display

MBTrading, and others, use 1/10 pip pricing. I notice that in some places, the chart will display the sub-pip price with an apostrophe, like: 0.8905'5. That's nice. But, in some places, it don't. It just displays 0.89055. Could you please make this consistent?

I also notice that it won't display a sub-pip if the sub-pip is 0. Which I understand the idea is to not display too much information. But, I'd prefer it to be consistent. Go ahead and show the '0.

Thanks for the suggestion. We will add it to the list of future considerations. Please ensure you have subpip support checked in the Tools->Option->Misc.

Could you provide a screenshot showing this inconsistency next time you see it?

Thanks

Okay, here's a printscreen:



Notice, for example, that 103.71'6 has the apostrophe, and 103.539 does not.

Are you referring to the indicator price markers? Since they are not "tick size" aligned, but could be any "odd" value, they can't formatted like instrument prices.

I'm not fully understanding what you are saying. But, it seems to me you could make the arrows consistent. For example, one red arrow has 103.71'6 (with apostrophe). But another red arrow has 103.120 (no apostrophe). The blue and black arrows have no apostrophe, but the grey arrow has an apostrophe. Also, of the two black arrows, one of them the sub-pip is 0, so, it doesn't show it at all, it only has 2 decimal places.

Perhaps I'm being "anal" but, when thinking, "okay, I'm 'x' pips from my target..." and all the numbers I'm looking at are formatted different, its not as nice as it could be. Of course, its not the proverbial end of the world, so I don't want to be complaining too bad. I'm just saying that it would be nicer if these were consistent. Thanks.

The blue/black price markers are coming from your indicator which holds values NOT tick size aligned -> those values can't be formatted with an apostrophe.
