Display TICKS not Points on chart

If I have studies on the chart, say profile. How do I display those values as TICKS instead of points?
I.E. 68.27% = 6.75PTS but I would like it displayed as 6,75*4=27 Ticks

Mini-DOW is $1 TICK

Chad,
This is the Mini-Dow so the TICK Size is $1 and the chart displays what I want for any other product I pull up on the chart

Easy to see Dont trade the overnight and easy to see quickly what the range is in ticks using the PROFILE ind in bottom

TINC

The token for tick increment is TINC.

To convert from price difference, to ticks, just divide by TINC...

(HI - LO) / TINC

You may find you need to add 1 to result to get exactly what you want.  And may use INT to force a whole number...

INT((HI - LO) / TINC) + 1

SET(V#1, INT((HI - LO) / TINC) + 1)

Indicator "Profile"?

Now how can I do that inside of Indicator "Profile"? I would like to export ALL data from the infobox (into C# values) then run your string

Maybe convert the whole lower study to TICK? The below is what I have now
INT( (SSTAT_FIRSTSIGNAL != 1) * (FRACU = 1) * (SSTAT_HI > SSTAT_LO) * (SSTAT_HI - SSTAT_LO) /TINC)

It does not round the number correctly. See short video:

100% working now

This is 100% working now, Had to use the Round function

ROU( (SSTAT_FIRSTSIGNAL != 1) * (FRACU = 1) * (SSTAT_HI > SSTAT_LO) * (SSTAT_HI - SSTAT_LO) /TINC, 1)
