I trade 10 lots, which equals 1 standard lot (100 000 currency units) in LMAX, which means 1 pip equals 10 currency units. The screen shot below shows a trade I made in EUR/AUD. I lost 1.8 pips (-0.00018), but the DPL shows -0.00180, which is wrong.

Attached is a similar trade in LMAX Web Trader, which is correct.

I might be wrong, perhaps I haven't understood what you are really measuring with the DPL.

Cheers
