The calculator is based on copying and pasting the contract information exactly as it’s seen on the old scanner. The calculator formulas know how many characters to expect in a contract for small cap, oil, etc. In this case you didn’t include PM in the expiration time, and this caused the calculator to not select the correct tick size for small cap.

Example of the old scanner information:

If you include the missing characters you should get this:

Ok thanks, right I forgot to add US in front of SmallCap and also forgot the PM.

To keep from having to type the contract information, you can copy the information from your Nadex order history. I use this for my own calculator, but tried it a few times on the website calculator and it works fine. I assume that the old scanner pulled the info. from the Nadex site, so it has the same format.
