Hi,

Problem:
I cannot access SOYF, CORNF, or WHEATF data using FXCM.

Background:
I have recently opened a live account with FXCM, and received instructions from SC. Following instructions, I have
- updated to current version and
- then continued from step 5 in FXCM trading service instructions.
- I tried File>>>Find Symbol and SOYF, and same for CORNF and WHEATF> In all cases got message on chart "downloading ..." that the becomes "Download failed"
- have re-started computer. Same problem.
- have followed instructions to Update Symbol Settings at <https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/GlobalSymbolSettings.php#UpdateSettings> . Same problem.

- Using CORNF as an example, Message log contains numerous messages including
" Currently no data in file to display. Will start historic data download and real-time updates. File C:\Sierra Chart\Data\CORNF.dly"
and
"HD request #18|Error downloading historic intraday data for CORNF. Historic data login error. Data files folder not set for service code : equities.us|2018-12-10 15:51:49"
then various messages including
"HD Request#18| Intraday download complete for CORNF Unique request ID: 17| 2018-12-10 15:51:49"
various others ending with
"Intraday chart data file opened for CORNF | 2018-12-10 15:51:49"

But I still cannot access data. Would appreciate you advising steps I needs to take to access SOYF, CORNF and WHEATF.


Thanks

We need to add these FXCM symbols. We did not know they have those. We will do that. Allow about 2 to 3 days.
