eSignals Exchange traded spreads

Postby pivot » 12 Feb 2010

I am trying to chart and exchange traded spread symbol from eSignal but for some reason I can not build the symbol in the quote manager.

My example is SB K0:SBN0 (this is Sugar May - July spread).

Yes I know I can build it synthetically with the legs ie May - July but I want to use the native esignal symbol

Does MC support this symbol format?

help on this would be appreciated.

Dear Pivot

You need to add your symbol Manually in QuoteManager. Please go to Instrument->Add Symbol->Manually. Select eSignal as a data feed, enter your symbol SB K0:SBN0 and choose Spread in the Category field.
You can check whether or not you can use certain symbol in MultiCharts as follows:
In the eSignal Data Manager->Symbol Monitor enter the name of the symbol and click "Request". If you see quotes coming then you can use that symbol.
