I received following native reject on a limit order at 119'26.75/32 for F.US.FVAM15:

Info: FIX field incorrect 'Illegal Price: '119.835937 contract 'ZFM5' (ticks in 0.0078125, CAB of 0)' ExchangeRejectCode = 1011[]

you can see the full price decimal should be 119.8359375 (the 5 got truncated so it was no longer to tick size)

Is there some way to fix this?

This will be solved in the next release coming out in a couple of days. The changes are rather involved. We were previously relying on a C++ formatting function but that had a limitation.

I have a problem:
On Version 1300.

CQG, FIX connection (I think).
Trading E-mini F.US.EP

I had traded live on this connection back around July 1 on then-current SC version. All was well.
I ran simulation from July 15 through today. All was well.
I have not changed anything since it worked in July.

When I tried to resume Live Trading today, I got
"illegal price" "FIX field incorrect" and error code 1101, like the above poster's problem.
In CQG's error message, the decimal is off by 2 places: Shows 200430.0

If I don't hear back in a couple of hours, I'll post this as a new thread.
