We have changed all of the TD Ameritrade futures symbols to use two digit years and they do not have a / anymore. Look for the symbols in File >> Find Symbol >> Futures - New. You can still use the old format as long as you see the old format symbols listed in File >> Find Symbol >> Futures. If you do not see the old format symbols listed there, then you need to change the symbols of existing charts. Here are the instructions: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_SwitchingSymbols.html#ChangingChartSymbol The reason for the change is because two digit years are more clear and eliminate some types of problems with Continuous Futures Contract charts. Since TD Ameritrade does not support futures market data or trading with the interface that Sierra Chart uses to TD Ameritrade, there really is no point in using the TD Ameritrade symbol format any longer.
