Sorry, we are still not quite understanding what the issue is. The Symbol setting is going to be the data you see in the chart. The Trade and Current Quote Symbol is going to be the symbol that is sent for a trade, and if the option for Use as Trade Only is not set, then it will also be the symbol that is used for any Quote data (refer to the Quote Board). So if you are changing the Trade and Current Quote Symbol to something that is not related to the Symbol, then you would probably want to change the Symbol as well. Or just use the Symbol if there is no relation between the data that you are looking for. In terms of the IB nomenclature, that is just something you will have to work through with IB. We have done our best to list the different options available on the following page, but in terms of what actually works, that is something you need to figure out as we do not have any special information that is not on the following page: Interactive Brokers Symbols[/b] For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing Date Time Of Last Edit: 2021-04-21 14:34:44
