just downloaded IND_Monitoring-Spread at forex tsd


since i'm using a 5 digit mt4 broker, i need some help on modifying the code..

for example, the original mq4 file shows 25 when the spread is 2.5 pips.
I'd like to change this 25 to 2.5

i have no idea where to put point(dot) to display it accordingly..

For your convenience, here's the code..
