Please add the point value ($ value of a point change), also known as the contract multiplier, for the futures/options/bond instruments.

For example, @ESM5 trades at 12.5$/tick, 50$/point. ie, contract multiplier = 50. This defaults to 1$ for us equity. Currencies may be tricky.

Hi, does DTN read these? Any comments? Is there a way to determine this information currently? what is the probability of this getting added to the feed? Thank you, PD.

Getting this information is part of a project that has been in the works for quite some time. Our current intent is to provide it as part of our high end commodity product, ProphetX. I haven't had any other requests for this data in our other product lines, so our initial development effort won't be geared towards those products.
