Hello world,

This might be a worthless thread for most, but at this moment it is very important for me to find the answer.

I have made a little indicator (in separate window) and at this moment, the values are shown with only 4 digits after the " . "
Could anyone help to make this indi show 5 digits please?

Hi emiliand,

Just change the digits in the code.
I hope that helps.

//---- Define the standard digits
int digits;
string sub=StringSubstr(Symbol(), 3, 3);
if(sub == "JPY") digits = 2;
else digits = 4; ----> to 5

Assuming you coded it, it should be easy to do. Take a look at your call to DoubleTo Str(). You can specify the number of digits.

If somebody coded it, all bets are off.

Thanks FerruFx for your input, you understood what I need, but unfortunately it doesn't work as this was the first thing I tried and I thought that there is something else I don't know about. It is still rounding up (e.g. from 1.00081 to 1.0008)

Still looking... thanks guys for your input

@bodypip...thanks but that is for actual price and I need indicator value

You may have a problem on your side because the solution given earlier works fine here. Just tested on the standard Stochastic ... without it show 4 digits ... with my solution it shows 5 digits.

Thanks for all your input guys, but there seems to be something wrong on my side. None of the indis are showing 5 digits. I must see what the problem is and I'll get back to this.
