No it won't work. I keep telling you the symbols are not mapped at all, are you recognizing that?

This is an SC problem and the problem is while you have surrogate/wildcard mappings for TSX and LSE, the mappings for ASX in GlobalSymbols.xml are completely missing.

Adding these entries (atleast for 3 char ASX symbols) completely fixes the problem for both IB mappings and non-IB mappings:

<settings>
<service-code>ib</service-code>
<symbol>***-STK-ASX</symbol>
<historical-chart-symbol>***.AX</historical-chart-symbol>
<use-pattern-matching-characters>true</use-pattern-matching-characters>
<category>Stocks</category>
<value-format-code>2</value-format-code>
<tick-size>0.01</tick-size>
<currency-value-per-tick>0.01</currency-value-per-tick>
<error-filtering>true</error-filtering>
<default-order-quantity>100</default-order-quantity>
</settings>
<settings>
<service-code>ib</service-code>
<symbol>???.AX</symbol>
<historical-chart-symbol>???.AX</historical-chart-symbol>
<use-pattern-matching-characters>true</use-pattern-matching-characters>
<category>Stocks</category>
<value-format-code>2</value-format-code>
<tick-size>0.01</tick-size>
<currency-value-per-tick>0.01</currency-value-per-tick>
<error-filtering>true</error-filtering>
<default-order-quantity>100</default-order-quantity>
</settings>
