Wapi,

Is more data available for this symbol in the WeBank program?
If yes, try the following:
1) open QuoteManager and find your symbol there;
2) double-click on it to open the settings and rename it;
3) add the symbol anew from the data source.
Does this help?

futurestrader019,

Thanks for sharing your observations. TOS and TS are brokers themselves so they have their own symbol list that doesn’t require any additional configurations.
How it works in NT and why we cannot add a pre-built symbol list like them was described in my commentaries above.

Hello, Meecc!

You need to rename the existing symbols to a 2-digits or 4-digits year format. If you have, e.g. ESU0 that used to be ES September in 2010, you need to rename it to ESU10 or ESU2010 in QuoteManager.

poutche, Both of your solutions are viable and there’s no fundamental difference between them. it seems strange to me that two orders are needed. This is the third parameter that asks me question.
