ZF price format is wrong

[zhangh]

CME Group has just changed tick sizes of bond futures.

ZB has the same tick size as ZN now. The tick size of ZF is now 1/4 of 1/32. The difference is ZB and ZN need 3 digits for the numerator of the fraction part, but ZF need 4. The denominator is always 32.

Tick size:
symbol old, new
ZB 1/32, 1/2 of 1/32
ZN 1/2 of 1/32, 1/2 of 1/32
ZF 1/2 of 1/32 , 1/4 of 1/32

Examples:
symbol data format, value
ZB, ZN 118 105, 118 + 10.5/32
ZF 118 1025, 118 + 10.25/32
ZF 118 1075, 118 + 10.75/32

In QCharts 6.0, the format of ZB has been changed to the same as ZN. But the format of ZF is in decimal now, which isn't useful. Please change it to the above format asap. Look at chart of ZFM8 as example.


Thanks.

ZF format still wrong in 6.0.2

In 6.0.2, the fraction part of ZF has 3 digits, which should be 4. See explanation below.

zhangh,

We aren't planning on showing that last digit at this time. As seen on CBOT, it is market standard to display data using three digits following the whole number.
