When I translate symbols from "SC Data - All Services" to "Interactive Brokers" it works fine. But, when I translate symbols from "Interactive Brokers" back to "SC Data - All Services", it does not work.

It is not surprising there are issues with this due to changes with symbols that Interactive Brokers has made.

Tell us one symbol you have an issue with, just one symbol only.

This is working fine now, thank you.

I am also having a problem with the following symbols which are producing the following error messages in an orange box on each chart.

$DXY - no security definition has been found for the request
$DOWI - no security definition has been found for the request
$DOWT - no security definition has been found for the request
$NASX - no security definition has been found for the request
$INX - no security definition has been found for the request

COPX - the contract description specified for COPX is ambiguous

Thank you.

The above is only happening when I translate symbols from "SC Data - All Services" to "Interactive Brokers".

This is resolved.

I added the extension -NQTV to the above symbols and now they work.
