Simulation trading incorrect pricing

Good afternoon,

I am new to sierra charts and have been practising on simulation mode. I have an account with AMP and am currently practising on the MICRO-E-MINI S&P 500 FUTURES (F.US.MESM22)
I have noticed that the pricing isn't working correctly. In chart settings I have the "currency value per tick" set to 1.25 but when I actually buy/sell it is coming up as 0.25 per tick
E.g. buy one contract at 4000 and sell at 4001 should be $5 but its coming up as $1
I have attached a screen shot of the chart settings, am I doing anything else wrong?

Thank you
