I followed the notice and made sure I activated Denali Real Time Equity Feed. The charts are no longer loading and no trades are going through from SC. Also any positions I have in IB are not being reflected in SC. On Friday everything was working. Pls help!

Thank you. The data is now real-time but I can't see my equity positions or make trades from SC. Auto-trading also not working.

Thank you I've managed to make the changes above and it seems to be working for most stocks. However for stock META, i've tried all possible combinations but I still can't trade from the chart. Is there a special code for this stock?

This is something you would need to ask Interactive Brokers. The information we have on the stock symbol format for Interactive Brokers is here: Interactive Brokers Symbols: Stock Format For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing

Thank you, but META-STK-SMART/NASDAQ-USD still doesn't work. I can't trade from the chart.

Is the problem that the order is getting rejected when you submit an order? Or you do not see the position on the chart when there actually is a position?

I can't see the position on the chart when there is a position. And if I try selling from the chart, it says position doesn't exist.
