Zen-Fire dll - is a new one needed?
Is a new datafeed dll needed for Zen-Fire? The existing one no longer works with the YM. It does work with the ES. I think zen-fire changed their symbol mapping for some symbols and YM was one of them.

No, a new zen-fire dll is apparantly not needed.
The symbol formatting for zen-fire is the following:
For CME symbol root<month code><y>
where month code H=Mar, M=June, U=Sept, Z=Dec
where y=year = 1 through 0 for 10th year
CME Examples:
ES use ESZ0 and CME exchange
NQ use NQZ0 and CME exchange
YM use YMZ0 and CBOT exchange
CME currency Futures
6E use 6EZ0 and CME exchange
For NYBOT exchange:
TF use TF FMZ0010! and NYBOT exchange
that is TF space <space>< FM><month code>"00"<yy>"!"
FDAX1210 and Eurex exchange
Root<mm><yy>
Turn the symbols on and see if they connect and ticks are saved. They are.
