Hi there,
Trying to track down EURGBP futures data and cannot see any in the SC/Interactive Brokers market list.
Am pretty sure (not certain) that this is a market. Do you know what the symbol code is?
Thanks,
Bootsyjam

Hi there,
Thanks for the reply. I already use the GBP symbol and it's GBP/USD in the same way that EUR is EUR/USD.
Very confused by all this!
Regards,
Bootsyjam

We apologize, we did not pay close enough attention.

What is the symbol for this in Trader Workstation?

Hi there,
If you go to this page https://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/index.php?f=2222&ns=T&exch=globex&showcategories=FUTGRP
and scroll down to European Monetary Union Euro, then these are all the different ones (EURAUD/EURCHF etc).
It appears from my reading of it that RP is the symbol for EURGBP?

Regards,
Bootsyjam

bootsy,
Yes, RP is the correct symbol for EUR/GBP futures. In SC, the symbol for June futures is: RP-201606-GLOBEX

Hi there, I don't have RP listed when going into chart settings. It goes R, RB then onto SB in the Find Symbol list in Sierra charts?!

It isn't necessary to click on "find" in the chart settings.
Enter RP-201606-GLOBEX in the symbol area to the left of "Find" click apply and then wait for the data to download and create the chart.

Could you please add this futures contract for CQG also? I've updated the symbol settings but it's not listed.

The symbol should be F.US.EB?## for CQG.
