Hi, MCX India has started trading for Commodity options in Gold recently. https://www.mcxindia.com/market-data/most-active-puts-calls I want to know correct format for Gold MCX options in sierra charts. I am using gold futures symbols correctly but am unable to figure out Option Symbol for Gold MCX.

I tried asking gdfl India directly but they told format for Amibroker GOLD17NOV28100PE.MCX
for siera charts they said to ask you. I tried to use this GOLD-XIMC-OPT-201711-C-29800 in sieraa charts as a guess like for nifty options it is NIFTY-NS-OPT-201711-C-9900 and for MCX futures is SILVER-XIMC-FUT-201712

GFDL has stopped supporting Sierra charts and there is no other datafeed provider for India working with sierra charts. I am waiting for anyone else to start MCX or Nse India datafeed for sierra charts.

This is the error we see:

You need to ask them about this particular authorization error.

We are working on our own integration to the Indian exchanges now. But it is a slow process unfortunately.

how long do you think it will take you to complete the integration to indian exchanges?

The integration is really the easy part but it is not going as quickly as we want for a couple of reasons.

The main problem is we then need to work with one or more brokers in India to offer the service through because it is too costly to provide that data direct from exchanges because they charge tremendous amounts of money for it. But this service we offer, will fully support trading.

We are currently working on NCDEX integration to their FAST data feed.

So exactly when the service becomes available is hard to say. We hope within six months.
