Hi,

Is there a way to bulk import symbol to Trade and Current Quite Symbol mappings?

E.g. I want to retrieve data for 100 symbols from IQN but map these the other symbols (the cfd variants) of Interactive Brokers so when the trade is placed on the chart (which sourced it's data from IQN) the trade is placed for the Interactive Brokers CFD.

It's possible to do one by one through the chart settings screen but I was hoping there would be a quicker method.

Thanks

We apologize for the delay. We needed some time to consider this. Also, thank you for posting on the support board.

When you say "IQN" what do you mean?

ACSIL allows you to set the Trade and Current Quote Symbol:
sc.TradeAndCurrentQuoteSymbol

Here is information about ACSIL:

So you can create a custom study to set that based upon the sc.Symbol of the chart.
