Hi,

When I take an order in Sim, even if I select 1 lot, it takes 63247 lots and every tick count for more than 600 points.
I download the most recent version and I have the same thing.
What's wrong ?

Thanks

What is the symbol for which you are making the trade?

What value is being set to 63247? Is this the quantity of the order or something else? Can you give us a screenshot showing the value in use?

Hello,

I'm trading BUND on EUREX.
63247 is the number of contract put on the market when I buy or sell as you can see on the screenhot enclosed. No matter if I select 1, 2 or 10 contracts, it entrer 63247 contarct.

On real account, it's the same thing but order is rejected because too high.

to complete the answer, I have 2 instances of SC, the main one with the Bund, and a 2sd one with ES.
The 2sd one works fine and the number of lot is correct. But if I put ES on the main instance, I have the same problem with 63427 lots at every order

The problem seems to be solved. It cames from the DOM.
I deleted it and put a new one. It seems to be ok

Thanks
