If I look at the CME web site http://www.cmegroup.com/apps/cmegroup/widgets/productLibs/esignal-charts.html?code=ZB&monthYear=M6&year=2016&venue=0&title=JUN_2016_U.S._Treasury_Bond_&type=p&exchangeCode=XCBT&dataWidget=true&chartMode=dynamic I see a chart which states that it is ZBM2016 but has a different price to Sierra ZBM6.

If you look at the charts without prices they appear to be the same.

I had a similar situation in a trading room today.

Is this possible?

Symbol ZB as in heading. ZBM6 as in content.

Time frame is irrelevant, but look at 5 minutes.

Date and time: Now - Eastern Standard time

Chart: Candle stick chart

As I type this Sierra is showing a price of 164.78 while CME is showing 164.26 (which is delayed ).

Ninja traders is showing 164.28

If you look at yesterdays trading range, high and low they are all different

You do not have the Value Format for the chart set correctly.

You should be using 1/32.

It has nothing to do with the value format. 1/32 = 0.03125

If you are going to use a .01 price format, we are not going to help with this. So at this point we are not going to help with this further.

Also, there really is no reason why the prices would be wrong. That simply makes no sense and if they are wrong and being you are using Rithmic you should ask Rithmic about this. But we know the prices are not wrong.

Of course with the way that you have the price is formatted, they are going to look wrong. So you are creating your own problem.. If you are trying to express something different, obviously you are smart enough to figure this out. So we do not know what the question is for us.

Here is a chart with 1/32.

I agree that there should be no difference in price, but there is.

If you look at the CME chart on their website then you would see that there is a difference.
