The prices displayed on the dom are way off from the prices on the chart, so it's not a matter of mark vs bid and ask.

I trade forex through TDAmeritrade currently.

These are the minimum tick sizes and values for some of the pairs (per 10k lot). When I calculate my P/L with these values it matches the real P/L changes in my account. These values are explicitly stated in the ThinkorSwim trading software. Also, the prices shown on the charts using Sierra Chart match the prices I see with TDA.

pair---------tick size-----tick value
USD/JPY------0.001---------$0.090
NZD/USD------0.00001-------$0.100
EUR/USD------0.00001-------$0.100
AUD/USD------0.00001-------$0.100
NZD/JPY------0.001---------$0.090
GBP/CHF------0.00001-------$0.100
NZD/CAD------0.00001-------$0.080
