So you wanted to get the S&P 500 cash index prices?

You need to activate the S&P Indices exchange:

The symbol that you want to open a chart for is $INX. You will find it in File >> Find Symbol.

OK thanks - i had the wrong symbol

i thought i had activated the exchange - i picked the top 'full CME group' with market depth - is this wrong?

do i need the full one just for $INX using TPO & volume profile?

thanks

Yes you need to activate S&P Indices and not Full CME Group.
