I have a little issue regarding currencies: when sending EUR:USD orders,
limits get somehow rounded with 2 decimal digits (instead of 4 digits),
for example sell at 1.3143 becomes sell at 1.3100 - which probably leads
in most cases to unwanted results . EUR:JPY 
orders come in correctly as do probably USD:JPY orders, as they are ok
with 2 decimals. On the other hand, the example provided in exs/tick
works fine: 
EUR:USD ticks come in with correct number of digits. So, it appearently
it has nothing to do with local environment variables. 

Any suggestions?


Thanks

Nils
