Would it be possible for someone map the QU-M FTS calendar spreads from the Gain feed with the ICE UK Nat Gas cal spreads that the Sierra feed provides? I need this done so I can trade them through Sierra. Currently I can only trade the outrights through the Gain feed on Seirra.
Cheers
Will

The easiest way to do this is to use the Trade and Current Quote symbol:
Chart Settings: Trade and Current Quote Symbol (text box) (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Symbol >> Symbol menu)

Although the chart will update, the disadvantage is that you will not see any market depth data or the current bid and ask prices in the chart. We do plan to add an option to control this behavior but it has not yet been implemented and probably still will not be for a while.

As a workaround just use another chart using the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed symbol, for this data.

Hi, I tried doing this in chart settings but the program does not seem to recognise the symbol for the calendar spread contracts from gain. Is there no one who can set this up for me so I may enter bids and offers?

What exactly do you mean by this? You can type any symbol into the Chart >> Chart Settings >>Trade and Current Quote Symbol box. You need to manually type the exact symbol in.

Did you try submitting an order after setting that symbol?

Hi, The spread cal I am looking for is not on the list that appears when I click on "Find Symbol"
That is my problem. Should I be able to trade this product even if Sierra chart have not got it added?

For example: QU-M +M8,-F9

It will not be listed. You just simply manually type it in. Just simply type in or paste QU-M +M8,-F9 into Chart >> Chart Settings >> Trade and Current Quote Symbol.

Should I be able to trade this product even if Sierra chart have not got it added?
Yes absolutely.

Still struggling to get this working despite reading the support page. Could someone not just add these spreads to the list of products on the Gain Feed?

Cheers

No because Sierra Chart cannot know what the symbols are and they cannot be easily generated.

Let us take this step-by-step. Did you enter the symbol in Chart >> Chart Settings >>Trade and Current Quote Symbol box?

If so, then what is the specific problem you are having. We will definitely help you with this.
