The misterious rounding depends on the type of order.
If it is a buy limit order (any order read as 'price
or lower') then ts will round down, if its a "or
higher" order (like a buy stop order) ts will round up
to the nearest 'valid price'.
This is perfectly logical. If the market is traded in
1/8ths, and you place an order to "buy limit at 80
1/16" you would expect to be filled at 80, not 80
1/8...

Dear H,
My problem is trying to understand how Long Exit stop orders are rounding in 
TS4.  Do you know/understand how TS is rounding my sell stops?  My mininum 
move is set to 1/16 trading stocks.  
Thanks.
