Hello, while testing XKK21 (May mini soy beans) with a delayed server side account, I have the following two transactions on the Trade Activity Log:

entry: 1530.74997 and exit: 1527.12497 for a total loss of: -3625.00; and:
entry: 1524.24997 and exit: 1526.74997 for a total loss of: -2500.00;

For a total loss, without comission of -6125.00

while I believe it should be 1/100th, or -25.00 and -36.25, as per the contract specs $1.25 per 1/8 of cent.

Curiously, the account went $-3400, I only realized when it alerted me I didn't have suffient margin. Can accounts go negative without warning?
Curiously as well, the Trading profit/loss Text Study does reflect a total loss of -61.25.
Thank you

Upon furter experimentaion, I have found that tick size (XKN21) to be 0.001250, albeit the Mini-Corn (XCN21) which has the same tick size is 0.1250.

I have updated the server symbol settings and Sierra Chart to lastest version.

Thanks,
