Interactive Brokers US Equities data feed- How to load NASDAQ?

Hi, I bought the "U.S. Equities (NYSE, NASDAQ, AMEX, BATS)" data feed for IB. I am confused on how to open the NASDAQ chart for the stocks. I have figured out that if you type, for example, AMD.BZ you get the BATS exchange chart. However, this chart does not add up to the chart I have on Tradingview for NASDAQ. I presume that NADSAQ chart is used by IB, thus I want that chart so that I can trade right in the sierra UI trading DOM.

How do I load the NASDAQ chart for AMD or other stocks?


Is it "AMD-STK-SMART/NASDAQ"?

When comparing the sierra chart when I type this to the one in the IB client, they are significantly different.(Notice the top of the wick is 81.16 on Sierra whilst IB only went to 80.25) See below:

Interactive brokers symbology is very complicated. You can try this:
AMD-STK-SMART/NASDAQ

So you can use that symbol and it will map properly to the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed but you need to test it and see if you can trade using that symbol.

In regards to the data, make sure the Session Times and time zone are correct so you are not filtering out any data during the day session:
