Post From: Wrong chart and order prices for LB futures

Hi,

I'm using IB as my broker. I have the full CME data. When I open an LB (lumber) chart or DOM, it shows prices multiplied by a factor of 10x.

For example, right now it's showing prices around 3600. Also, it shows a precision of 0.1 of that. So it actually shows ticks at all prices like 3600.0, 3600.1, 3600.2, etc.

That's not how the contract works. It should be 360.1, 360.2, etc. Same "0.1" precision but on a 1/10 of the price.

So I went to the Symbol Settings, found the LB symbol on the list, and changed both the Historical Price Multiplier and Real-Time Price Multiplier options to the value 0.1.

That change makes the Charts and DOMs display correctly. However, when Sierra Chart sends an order to IB, the order is sent with 10x the price!

How to fix this?
Thanks
