Bug - V3.2.37EN - stock percentages are confusing #69

Closed chmurray-cisco closed 3 months ago

Version: V3.2.37EN

The percentage change of a stock is never correct.

Example: On smalltv-pro ticker ^IXIC shows +5.2% when its up only 0.37%. Same problem for other tickers and currencies I've checked.

chmurray-cisco commented 5 months ago

Update: ok the percentage displayed relates to the period of 24 x , e.g. 24 days by default since it defaults to 24 candles of a day each. In other words, it is not the days change. If you make the interval much smaller, e.g. 5 minutes, you get 24 candles x 5 mins range and the percentage adjusts. I wish there was an option to show percentage change from the day's open instead.

Hello, you mean you want to display today's price change from the open time?

chmurray-cisco commented 5 months ago

Yes, percentage up or down on the day. Having percentage over last 24 candles (of varying time) is of limited value.

@chmurray-cisco Hi, please try this version, stock percent shows the price change percent of today. FW_SmallTV-PRO_V3.2.40EN.zip

Hi, I've just testing 3.2.40, I'm seeing all percentages incorrect.

Example: ^IXIC showing 0.0% but actually up 0.14% today ^GSPC showing 0.0% but actually up 0.17% today image

Thank you, the percent has been rounded in last version, please check the new one here. firmware-V3.3.44.zip

I see its rounding to one decimal place - since that is all we have on screen - which is OK.
