for index products (for example GDAXI), you have to use a qunatity of 10 in Sierra to get one contract. If you send an order for 1 in Sierra, it will result in an invalid quantity error, there are no fractional index contracts. Also for metals (XAU, XAG, XPT, XPD) and . I think in these cases it might make more sense to make it so that 1 Sierra qty = 1 lmax qty. But it is fine either way.
It used to work this way but we changed it to be consistent with the Forex symbols. Consistency is important.


Also the datafeed at the moment does not appear to support XNGUSD (Natural gas), HSI (Hongkong 50), NDXm (Nasdaq mini), WS30m (Dow mini), SPN35 (Spain index) and USD/ILS.
We will check on these.

We are aware of this problem and we are going to be working on it today:


Resetting last order modification Price and Quantity due to an apparent failed order modification. | Symbol: EURUSD | TradeAccount: 743060139 | InternalOrderID: 49 | 2016-03-11 17:27:29 *

It started happening after some recent changes to send out more frequent order updates.
