StepLots, to avoid repeated calcualtions . .. put once on OnInit level . .

if you remeber phu code . . . two-days ago, it might be the best solution (best checker)

{quote} Regarding to the NormalizeDouble(), it is ok if your steplots > 1, but when steplots >=10 lots, let's say steplots=10 then -MathLog10(stepVol) = -1 it is a negative number, which is invalid to the 'digits' parameter of the NormalizeDouble() function {image} In my opinion this may be a solution for that {image} double input_volume = 31.3; double stepVol = 10; // stepVol = SymbolInfoDouble(mySymbol,SYMBOL_VOLUME_STEP); Print("stepVol = "+(string)stepVol); double output_volume = stepVol*MathFloor(input_volume/stepVol); Print("output_volume("+(string)input_volume+")...

why they put -1 ??
assume lots is 90 . . .
StepV=10
10(90/10-1)=10(8)=80 ?
?
Are they stupid in math?

assume you want volune of 3.14 lot ans stepLot = 0.01 :
0.01 *(3.14/0.01-1) = 0.01 *(314-1) 3.13 ?
?
