TAL rounding some trades to tick value, some not.

My Trade Activity Log P&L reports always display single ES ticks rounded out to 13. So a 1 tick win or loss is +/- $13. Some larger trades clearly round to increments of 12.50 ($50, $75, etc.) but others absolutely do not ($38, $63, $113, etc.). Some are 1 lots, some are multiple lots, I don't see a consistent pattern there. Commissions are not in use and shouldn't be a factor. Symbol settings are set correctly, Chart Settings tick value is set correctly. Is there some setting somewhere that could do this? |

Can you show us an example of what you are seeing? And what is your Currency Value per Tick set to on the chart where you are seeing the issue? For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

Sure thing, https://snipboard.io/SWrZ2C.jpg Currency value per tick is set at 12.50 for every chart. Also I'm seeing this in the TAL, not a specific chart. |

Check what you have entered for the following setting: Global Trade Settings Windows: Number Decimal Places for Displayed Currency Value (Global Settings >> General Trade Settings >> General) Most likely this is set to 0. It should be 2 to show 2 decimal places (i.e. 12.50 instead of 13).

WOW that was it. I have never touched that setting, no idea why it would ever have been at zero. This has plagued me from the start of my time with SC. Thank you!!!
