Hello and thank you for your help.

In the trading evaluator mode (real-time not delayed) I am getting the following error "symbol is unknown. Click for symbol information. Makret depth is not allowed.
I have tried the fix: edit >> translate symbols to current setting but nothing changed.

Could you provide me with the next steps I should do, please?

Thank you,

Panos

You do not have any CME Group exchanges active on the Denali Exchange Data Feed. You can activate the exchange(s) you want for the CME Group from the following page:

Thank you, I had missed this step.
I am still having the same problem although I did activate the full CME with market depth package. I tried Edit >>> translate symbols to current service, but no change after restarting.

Are you getting the same error message?

If so, then what is the exact symbol as it is entered in Chart Settings >> Symbol?

Yes, I am getting the same error message, only if I choose the real time trading evaluator. In the delayed trading evaluator I do not get the error.

The error appears on all chart types and symbols, for example: ESZ21, NQZ21, CLF22, 6EZ21. DOM's, candlestick, tpo, etc.

I tried Edit >> Translate symbols for current service and also tried restarting many times.

There are two problem occurring.

1. The symbols are incorrect. For the Trading Evaluator service, the symbol for the Z 2021 contract of the ES would be ESZ21. Make sure you have your chartbooks open and then select Edit >> Translate Symbols to Current Service.

2. You have signed up for the Non-Professional CME exchanges, which means that you need to connect to your live, funded futures trading account at the beginning of each month to qualify for the lower-priced exchange fees. You have not connected to your trading account yet this month. Refer to the following:
