Post From: Micro S&P Sierra Chart question on trade dollar amounts

Hello Sierra Charts,

I am trading with AMP Futures with the latest Sierra Charts (just downloaded and reinstalled today 3/4/2020). I plan to trade the micro e-mini S&P 500 index futures. The symbol on my chart is F.US.MESH20. When I 'Open Trade Window For Chart' in order to set up my 3 micro contracts trade, the dollar amounts showing are the same amounts that show up when I am trading the normal e-mini S&P index futures.

Shouldn't the dollar amounts be 1/10th the amount? How can I be sure I will be trading micro contracts vs mini contracts?

I sent in a screen shot to help make my question clear. Please let me know how I can confirm that the risk I am taking when trading is correct to trading the micro e-mini S&P 500 index futures.

Thank you.
