I'm trying to trade S&P micro contracts and set up the trade symbol to reflect this as per the screenshot. When I sold 1 contract, it was a mini instead i.e. 10x larger than I'd wanted. The instructions on the site say (for Trade and Current Quote Symbol): "When this option is selected, then the symbol entered in the Trade and Current Quote Symbol box will only be used for trading purposes" though this does not appear to have happened. Please advise. Thanks |
