| ===== Ticks and cash value ===== | See [[developers:systempricing|System Price Format]] for more information. |
| |
| * ''min_price_increment'' (in ''MarketDetails'') is the tick — the smallest valid price step. e.g. tick ''25'' → …, 4000.00, 4025.00, 4050.00, … | |
| * ''point_value'' (in ''MarketDetails'') converts a price move to cash: ''(price2 − price1) × point_value''. e.g. 4200.00→4225.00 at ''point_value'' 0.5 = 12.50 per contract. | |
| |
| ===== Timestamps, dates and ids ===== | |
| |
| * **Timestamps** — ''google.protobuf.Timestamp'' (UTC). ''Heartbeat.timestamp'' is UTC epoch **milliseconds**. | |
| * **Dates** — ''trade_date'' and similar are ''int64'' date values. | |
| * **Ids** — ''exchange_id'', ''contract_id'', ''market_id'', ''account_id'', ''user_id'' are strings, obtained from login and the [[developers:markets|Instruments API]]. | |
