Hello,
Using Sierra Chart Historical Data Service, I would like to display charts of individual US Stocks.
In the SC documentation I am reading that stocks are not listed and have to be typed directly into Find Symbol>>Selected Symbol field.
However, as I am unable to lookup a single stock symbol, I would like to know what the name convention is.
Let's say I would like to open a chart for Apple, what do I type in ?
I have tried AAPL, Apple, AAPL:NASDAQ, NASDAQ:AAPL, with no success.
Please help
Thank you
with regards
Jiri

Hello,
I am still not able to download any historical data for any stock. I tried everything as per the documentation. According to the system log, something is wrong and data doesn't get downloaded. I am attaching log when attempting to download historical data for Apple stock - AAPL.NASDAQ
Please help, thank you.
