With regards to the "Trade and Current Quote Symbol", make sure that you have set this in the Symbol Settings for the various _MBO symbols. For example, in the Symbol Settings for ????_MBO you would want to enter a "Trade and Current Quote Symbol" that looks like "????_STK_SMART_USD" or whatever is required for the proper Interactive Brokers symbology. When you do this, then when you change your main symbol, the Trade and Current Quote Symbol will also update.

You would probably want to do the same thing for "XBTUSD-BMEX" and set the "Trade and Current Quote Symbol" to be the same as the main symbol (i.e. XBTUSD-BMEX) that way you do not need to worry about how it is set, not that you can trade this symbol with Interactive Brokers anyway.

With regards to the download times, this has nothing to do with the "Trade and Current Quote Symbol". You are only downloading data for the main symbol. If you have a specific list of symbols that you go through, then you should use the "Intraday File Update List" in order to get the data for those symbols ahead of time. Refer to the following:
Global Settings Menu: Intraday File Update List (Global Settings menu)
