Post From: Request For Comment: SECURITY_DEFINITION_RESPONSE::PriceDisplayMultiplier

1. We propose to add to the SECURITY_DEFINITION_RESPONSE message, the following field:

float DisplayPriceMultiplier

When this is set to a value other than 1.0, the prices in the market data and and trading related messages from the Server will need to be multiplied by this multiplier before applying PriceDisplayFormat.

So this allows a Client to still store prices in the actual original format as provided by the Server when the server is not providing prices as integers. And then do the multiplication and formatting at the time the number is displayed.
