    PedigreeAdded FIX.2.7, Updated FIX.4.2

    Sequence of digits with optional decimal point and sign character (ASCII characters "-", "0" - "9" and "."); the absence of the decimal point within the string will be interpreted as the float representation of an integer value. All float fields must accommodate up to fifteen significant digits. The number of decimal places used should be a factor of business/market needs and mutual agreement between counterparties. Note that float values may contain leading zeros (e.g. “00023.23” = “23.23”) and may contain or omit trailing zeros after the decimal point (e.g. “23.0” = “23.0000” = “23”).
