round number indicator auto scales for commodities & fx?

On trading view the line/grid scaling on commodities, indexes and fx scales/adjusts automatically where you can clearly see the round numbers.

Ive tried many round number indicators for MT4 where you need to specify distance which works for spot fx but when you switch to commodities or indexes the line spacing is wrong.

Anyone know of an indicator that does the line spacing automatically between types of instruments?

Or anyone know how to calculate it?

Did you tried to play with the distance input ... adding or removing some zeros ? Commodities don't have the same decimal point ... hence the wrong spacing if you use same value than FX.

Thats the point really is im looking for something that automatically adjusts the line spacing depending on digits. However im not sure if its simply adjusting the number of digits or also calculating tick size or atr or something else. In any case Trading View seems to do it correctly but i just dont know how.

Sorry I am out of subject, but I found out this thread more proper for my question, does anyone have a round detector numbers indicator which you can input the price example: 1.20123 and plot next round numbers every 5-10 pips etc. like, 1.20128 or, 1.20223 for 5 and 10 pips.
