Entering a symbol name alone is often sufficient to create a chart for a stock. For example, a plot for Google, Inc. can be created by simply typing '''goog''' into the command line toolbar; all the other parameters will be selected automatically. However, for some symbol categories and data sources, additional parameters may be required in order to precisely identify the symbol to be plotted.
If the exact symbol name is not known, but only the symbol description or the symbol root, or if plotting the symbol through the command line does not work, [[:Category:QuoteManager|QuoteManager]] can be used to search for and identify the correct symbol.
<div style="background-color: #E3FBE5;">Note: When symbol parameters are entered into the command line the first time that that MultiCharts is used, the Data Source must be specified.</div>
