I have the appropriate subscribtions from IB to see these symbols in RT. When I try to represent them in a chart inside MultiCharts, or to simulate a signal with them, QuoteManagers displays the following messages:

After checking with IB's API support team, they informed me that the error code was related to a misformulated request from MultiCharts.
Other symbols (futures) are retrieved OK from IB inside Multicharts.Based on the error message, it seems that the API program or Multi-chart program is sending invalid parameters for DJStoxx600 contract. In this particular case, I highly recommend that you consult with the Multi-Chart vendor with respect to how to request market data with their application, especially for this DJStoxx600 contract. Thank you.
