Select the Point & Figure chart type
After it has appeared, right click on one of the crosses or noughts.
Select Point Figure Properties
Click on the Parameters tab
Highlight the existing box size
Type 5
Press OK

Note: 5 is a very large box size, and won't work for most securities. If you mean 5 cents, then use 0.05

The default box size is calculated as 2% of the midpoint of the range as recommended by Colin Nicholson in the Securities Institute of Australia E171 course.
