Fractions in Order/Position Tracker

Postby automaton » 09 Feb 2022

With MC’s new release, filled/pending orders no longer show decimals, and now show fractions for futures. I find it somewhat unusual.

Is there a setting or registry tweak that would allow me to revert orders displayed in the order/position tracking window back to decimal?

Hello automaton,

Please remove and re-add the Symbol Mapping lines for the problematic symbols.

Thanks Kate, but that doesn’t work. Seems this is something your development team embedded into the order and position tracker window with the current MC release. It’s not the end of the world, and doesn’t effect order execution, but just curios why the change to fractions was implemented. Just unusual to display them that way. Most platforms use decimals. Please see attached image.

automaton,

Usually, re-configuring the Symbol Mapping helps with the price displayed for new orders. Did the orders with fractions appear after you've re-configured the Symbol Mapping?
If so, please come to the live chat Monday-Friday from 5:30 AM till 12:00 PM ET so that we could connect to your computer remotely and check the issue.

Ok. I'll play around with that a little more, and follow up in live chat if the fractions re-appear. Thanks Kate
