Hello,

I have tried it now and it works exactly as you wrote, thank you! I think I have found a bug which was causing it not to work on my side.

1. When a Trade And Current Quote symbol is added in Symbol Settings, and the chart is configured to use it, it works fine. I am using a Quote Board to switch between symbols, and it is linked to the chart. BUT if I then click on another symbol in the Quote Board (which does not have a custom symbol configured in Symbol Settings), Trade And Current Quote for the chart remains the old one, the one configured for the previous chart/symbol. This is really annoying, as the only way to fix it is to add the Trade And Current Quote symbol for each contract I am using, so that I don't accidentally end up sending an order to a wrong symbol (since the chart remembers the old symbol). So to reproduce the issue you just have to first use a symbol which has Trade And Current Quote symbol set in the chart (and global Symbol Settings for this future), and then move to other symbols which don't have it, and you should see the old symbol still configured in the chart. I think the chart/DOM should reset this field whenever it switches to a new symbol, which should solve these issues.

2. To recapitulate, trading CBOT AG micros if viewing them on the same micro chart now works. What still does not is trading CBOT micros on a big contract chart while using the micros only for trading purposes. The reason is the same as before - DOM/chart is displaying amounts in cents, while the IB micros are in dollars so the order gets rejected by IB.
