Create custom symbol MT5

[Milko Vivaldi]

Hello community,

I tried to create a custom synthetic symbol but I think that something is wrong because EUR chart that I created is identical to EURJPY :-(

I used these 2 formula and always same result :-(

(bid(EURAUD)+bid(EURCAD)+bid(EURCHF)+bid(EURGBP)+bid(EURJPY)+bid(EURNZD)+bid(EURUSD)) / 7

(EURAUD+EURCAD+EURCHF+EURGBP+EURJPY+EURNZD+EURUSD) / 7

Where is the error?

It is clear.

eurjpy has two decimal places more than other currencies.

The eurjpy currency will be much more valuable when averaging. You need to fix this problem.

With or without 3 decimals result will still be the average of 7 cross, in fact on the MT4 indicator it does not give problems.

Maybe the problem is in the specification where I put 5 decimals!? 😵🤔

Nothing :-( I put 3 decimals but always chart is the same EURJPY....

I don't know if I wrote well the formula.... I think that put together symbols which has 5 and 3 points will be possible ofcourse
