Hello, once again I must apologize for digging up this dead horse thread... but I've only just realized today that something has changed regarding Assets.dta (I'm currently on v1.14)

The Assets.dta that I prefer came from my IBFX broker and is 2 posts above this one.

However, in the current Zorro version it seems that as soon as I run a backtest, Zorro modifies Assets.dta. It seems to reduce precision and also round-up both the PIPcost and Margin column.

I'm ok with this, as long as you can assure me that rounding-up is always the preferred pessimistic choice. If it could introduce too much optimism then that would be a problem I think. Here is an example:

original Asset.dta
