Price multiplier difference working with SCID files - SC Data vs Denali

Futures data from the SC Data - All Services connection is stored with decimal. The same data when pulled from the Denali feed is stored without decimal (requires price multiplier of "0.01").

When working in SierraChart this is handled automatically but when working directly with a SCID file (C++ code) I need to account for the format of the data.

Is there a way to determine the price multiplier from the SCID file alone or do I need to make sure I am tracking which data source it was pulled from? I'm comfortable doing this in C/C++ if there is a way that I've overlooked.

I've read the documentation on the Intraday Data File Format (Intraday Data File Format) and I've also read through the source code but I don't see anywhere in the Intraday Header that stores this information or any way to derive this information.

This is not a correct statement. What you actually are referring to is the Teton Order Routing service. Not the Denali Data Feed.

No.

do I need to make sure I am tracking which data source it was pulled from?
Yes.
