MC Not Submitting Correct Limit Order Values
I have an automated strategy that I'm trying to apply to bonds (ZF, ZN), but MC keeps submitting orders as "127.75" for example, and they are rejected. My limit orders are simple (open +/- offset), but even when I set the offset to 0 I still get the error. Any suggestions?

Hello deltastrike,
Which broker do you use?
What is the reason of the order reject?

Currently using Rithmic Sim, the error is "incorrect value" for the limit order. I suppose it's expecting a fractional value like 121 12.5/32

Hello deltastrike,
Please make sure you have the correct price scale for the instruments:
ZF = 1/32 and j of 32nd
ZN = 1/32 and S of 32nd
You need to remove the symbol mapping for the instrument and close/open chart for it in order to apply the changes in the instrument settings.

The pricescale appears correct, the y/price axis is displayed as fractional values (ie 14/32, 14.5/32).

Hello deltastrike,
Is it set correctly in the Symbol settings in the Quote Manager?

It appears to be set up correctly, I have it flagged to use default or exchange values.
