Post From: problem loading forex charts IB

Hello Support,

I have a problem loading Forex Charts from IB. Whenever I click on EDIT, DELETE ALL DATA AND DOWNLOAD its just keeps saying download failed or symbol not recognized.

I understand Sierra Charts has a forex data feed from FXCM, but I don't want to use an unreliable data feed from FXCM. No offence, but the feed pretty crap IMO.

Please see attached the log.
