Ib Mapping

[Burnout69]

having a lot of issue for mapping DTB,globex and idem future contracts and tick/value size.
1 example, i can't map future on eurostxx50 (cant find on symbol lookup) or i cant fix the point value of any future contract.

partially solved

found the stoxx future contract, the main issue is to change correctly the tick size for any type of future and the point value that remain unchangble.

BB,

Each contracts tick increment can range from .025 up to 1 point and the point value can range from 5 to 50 per point. To get the correct information for each of the contract please check the Contract Specification page for each contract on their respective exchange websites.

Euro Stoxx 50--- Tick Increment = 1 point value = 5 Euros
S&P E-Mini --- increment = 25 point value = 50 USD

even if i think you have wrote a wrong answer, the main think is that in the "edit symbol" window (in the broker manager dictionary & order defoult) I cant "click" (for modifing) the "point value" section under tick size, it's set to 1 and is unchangeble.

correct if i'm wrong

Eurostoxx tick size = 1 and point value = 10
es mini tick size = 1/4 and point value = 50
dax ticksize =1/2 and point value = 25
