Hi-

Is there any way to format and/or round numbers returned in the watchlist? For example...

Performance value of 1.6432 presented as 1.6%
RSI value of 49.9432 presented as 50
Volume of 2921234 presented as 2,921,234

Thanks!

Hi Jason,

For volume, use this function: Transform Double To Comma Separated Representation
For rounding use: Round function.

Example:
AddColumn("RSI", round(rsi(14), 0));
AddColumn("Perf", round(perf(close, 10), 1)."%"); // . to append text
