The symbol isn't mapped properly. The trades don't get executed when I'm using the Sierra data feed and executing on $MSFT although [M] is present beside the chart name. I've updated the symbol list and it still doesn't work. I trade mostly MSFT so this is a big issue for me. Is there a solution to this? Thanks.

You need to use the symbol listed in File >> Find Symbol >>Specific Stocks. In the case of Interactive Brokers do not use $MSFT or MSFT. You need to change all use of the MSFT symbol you are using to the new one you see listed in the Find Symbol window. This is essential and then reconnect to the data feed: File Menu: Procedure to Reconnect to the Data and Trade Servers Otherwise, you will run into conflicts.
