This is correct: <settings>
<service-code>interactive_brokers.trading</service-code> <symbol>????-STK-SMART</symbol> <historical-chart-symbol>????</historical-chart-symbol> <use-pattern-matching-characters>true</use-pattern-matching-characters> <category>Stocks</category> <value-format-code>2</value-format-code> <tick-size>0.01</tick-size> <currency-value-per-tick>0.01</currency-value-per-tick> <error-filtering>true</error-filtering> <default-order-quantity>100</default-order-quantity> <source-data-symbol>????</source-data-symbol> <source-data-multiplier>1.0</source-data-multiplier> <generic-sub-client-server-address>127.0.0.1:11101</generic-sub-client-server-address> <realtime-data-client>Generic_Sub_Clients</realtime-data-client> <historical-data-server>127.0.0.1:11100</historical-data-server> <historical-daily-data-source>SC_DTC_HISTORICAL_DATA_SERVER</historical-daily-data-source> <historical-intraday-data-source>SC_DTC_HISTORICAL_DATA_SERVER</historical-intraday-data-source> </settings> This is not needed because the symbol is already available to be used as GER30 with Interactive Brokers and also other services. <settings> <service-code></service-code> <symbol>GER30-CUSTOM</symbol> <symbol-srvcode>fxcm</symbol-srvcode> <use-pattern-matching-characters>false</use-pattern-matching-characters> <description>German DAX Index</description> <category>Custom</category> <value-format-code>2</value-format-code> <tick-size>0.1</tick-size> <currency-value-per-tick>0.01</currency-value-per-tick> <error-filtering>false</error-filtering> <default-order-quantity>10</default-order-quantity> <source-data-symbol>GER30</source-data-symbol> <source-data-multiplier>1.0</source-data-multiplier> <generic-sub-client-server-address>127.0.0.1:11099</generic-sub-client-server-address> <realtime-data-client>Generic_Sub_Clients</realtime-data-client> <historical-data-server>127.0.0.1:11098</historical-data-server> <historical-daily-data-source>SC_DTC_HISTORICAL_DATA_SERVER</historical-daily-data-source> <historical-intraday-data-source>SC_DTC_HISTORICAL_DATA_SERVER</historical-intraday-data-source> </settings> But it can be used. And the symbol can be anything. It does not have to have "CUSTOM" in it. Another note is that when creating these custom settings, it is not necessary to set <service-code></service-code>. It will be automatically set when Sierra Chart is started and set to the service code for the active service. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
