How to use eSignal in Auto Trading?
I use eSignal to plot a chart of an stock option. I want to trade the option using IB. The symbol of the option in eSignal and IB are not the same. How can I set up the Symbol Dictionary?

Another option is to change: (After you have inserted a Strategy)
change symbols attributes under symbol directory: Select Format Strategies > Properties > AutoTrading > Settings(under Broker Plugin - last option) > Symbol directory
Here you can change "UnderLying", "Exchange", "Expiry" etc to exactly match with IB symbol attributes.
In attached example I have used TS Data for contineous contract symbol: @EC on CME exchange to trade on IB "EUR" Symbol on GLOBEX exchange.
