HI.
1 contract tick move on MES futures showing a .25c / tick on sierra in both sim and live. 1 Contract tick move on my IB account showing $1.25 / tick move.

Is there a way i can fix this?
See screen shorts below
thanks

The P/L in Sierra Chart is being displayed as Points, not currency, hence the reason it has a P after the number. Refer to the following setting if you want to change this:
Chart Settings: Profit/Loss Format (List) (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Trading menu)
For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:
