Decimals in Stop/Target amts?

[cassb]

The stop and target amounts that you set for an ATM strategy should be in ticks, right? Like if you want a stop to be 15 ticks, you enter "15"? Why is my DOM requiring me to enter stop and target in the decimal ticksize? See that attached screen shot of DOM. For the 6E instrument, I expect to type 15 for stop and 10 for target. Instead it's forcing 0.0015 and 0.0010. This causes the strategy that is using this ATM to calculate its limit orders for the stop and target incorrectly. See screen shot of error I get.

I have done Reset Instruments, and also have deleted the NinjaTrader.sdf file so that it would create a new one. It is still not allowing integers for the stop and target -- even though a friend with NT7 can enter integer stop and target for the 6E on his DOM.

Thanks!

Right-click and choose properties, check the Parameter type row and make sure it is set for ticks and not price. Sounds like that should take care of what you're seeing.

That did the trick, thank you! I don't use the DOM much, so such a simple thing didn't occur to me. :-)
