You have to install either
1. the TWS Trader Work Station, or
2. the gateway.

I am going to guess that this problem is caused by not having a Brazilian real currency to choose from when you add the BOVESPA exchange to the Exchanges & ECNs and/or Security Definition in QuoteManager.

The API call to IB TWS needs to use BOVESPA as exchange name and BRL as currency, not USD, for parameters or it won't find that security.

You should private message MultiCharts support.

Hello rrams

I think you are right .

I tried stayied currency like none but without sucesss.

I can find the instrument listed in quote manager to insert a new symbol and add but after this step create a new chart and select this paper the response is no data.

In IB tool I´m receiving the brazilian data the problem is MC software not show in the MC chart.

Lets try Mc support.
