Hello SIERRA, Im using a TransAct data feed and cannot get some symbols to load. I contacted Transact and was told they only provide futures data. What do I need to do in order to get intraday quotes for the major indecies of DOW Jones Industrial Avg, NASDAQ composite, S&P 500, RUSSEL 2000, and some STOCK symbols? I added these thru the FS window under indexes and get no data. Also what symbols do I need for charts of the NYSE and S&P 500 Advance-Decline issues? I found the NISS-NYSE for the NYSE Adv-Decl and am using it- which seems fine. Then I read from the Sierra Chart Market Statistics page, "...NISS-NYSE is equivalent to the old $NSHF symbol. This is the symbol to use to get the Advance-Decline line. However, to get the true Advance-Decline line, you need to add the Advance Decline Line study to a chart of this symbol.. Would you explain this? Is what I'm using now erroneous data? Does this apply to the tick as well? I just want to get: Major indecie quotes. And the advance decline issues for both the NYSE and the S&P 500. Thanks
