Symbol Mapping is a universal symbol name translation tool between data feeds and brokers. Very often data feeds and brokers have different names for the same symbol and orders can get rejected because of incorrect symbol reference. Thanks to Symbol Mapping tool it is possible to use any combination of data feeds and brokers. It helps to route your order to the broker, and to receive an order status.
To access Symbol Mapping window, in MultiCharts Main Menu go to '''File''', then select '''Broker Profiles''' and in the opened menu click '''Symbol Mapping...'''.<br>
