unreal volume

[Gorbay]

hi

after the last beta update the volume in the charts are unrealistic, at least on binance
 

[Jerry Medved]

Hmm, ok, the BIG change in this beta is volume handling, so that type of issue is what we are looking for (as far as beta testing) Will check

[Jerry Medved]

BTW, you have wrong symbols in MT. You need to use MT symbol format. #BTC.USDT instead of #BTCUSDT.  without the period, will cause problems.

[Gorbay]

ohh i didnt know that

 fixed the problem

 

thanks

[Jerry Medved]

as far as your original problem, if you clear and backfill, does it show correct volumes? I could not recreate your issue

[Gorbay]

clearing backfill fixes it, just tried it..

 

what is the difference between #BTCUSDT and #BTC.USDT ?

 

[Jerry Medved]

#BTC.USDT is the proper format for MT, where both the symbol and currency are specified. 

#BTCUSDT is not correct, but just happens to get data from Binance because MT reads BTCUSDT as the symbol, nothing as the currency, but then when constructing the internal Binance symbol needed to get the data, it ends up being the same. However, other parts of MT will not work right with this since MT will not recognize the root symbol as crypto and will not know what the currency is.
