With Interactive Brokers, you will need to use the Trade and Current Quote Symbol and set the main symbol as xxx-NQTV and the Trade and Current Quote Symbol as the IB symbol.

For example, in the above, you would use the main symbol of MSFT-NQTV and then set your Trade and Current Quote Symbol to MSFT.

Keep in mind, you may need to use a longer format IB symbol, such as MSFT-STK-SMART-USD. Refer to the information here:
Interactive Brokers Symbols: Stock Format

Refer to the documentation here regarding the Trade and Current Quote Symbol:
Chart Settings: Trade and Current Quote Symbol (text box) (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Symbol >> Symbol menu)
