I use Sierra Chart to trade 6J options with IB. When I tried to submit the following limit order:

buy JPY‑FOP‑20260220‑0.006525‑P‑CME‑12500000‑USD at 0.000011

Sierra Chart returned an error. However, in IB TWS I can place the same price (0.000011) without any issue. In Sierra Chart’s Trade Order window, the price is displayed as 1.15 instead of 0.000011, and the order is rejected by Sierra Chart.
I use Price display format: 0.000001 , tick size:0.000001 , currency value per tick: 12.5 and all multiplier set to 1 and SC version is 2882

This issue appears only when trading JPY‑FOP; other assets do not have this problem.

Error log:

The snippet you supplied is not giving any information related to the issue you are stating. The errors you show state that the order is still being placed, even though there is an attribute of "Outside Regular Trading Hours" (which we do not understand, as we do not set this).

We would need to see the actual messages you are getting in terms of a rejection. There is no reason for there to be a rejection by Sierra Chart, so you would be getting a rejection by Interactive Brokers, and you need to determine why you are getting that rejection.

Also, what price are you viewing in the Trade Window that is set to 1.15? And what kind of order are you entering?
