Thank you. I looked at the documentation at Interactive Brokers Symbols: Stock Format and have a couple of follow-up questions. 1. Should I determine the "Specified Exchange and Primary Exchange Format" when the stock symbol is flagged as ambiguous in the log? If so, where should I lookup the Primary Exchange information to derive the correct format: [stock symbol]-STK-[exchange / primary exchange]-USD? Am I able to get the correct format from the IB Trader Workstation? 2. Do you want to have stock symbols, which need to have a custom entries added, submitted to SC so they work for everyone or should I utilize the "Specified Exchange and Primary Exchange Format" on my SC client? As a follow-up from my initial post these are the additional symbols which work successfully with v2318 but are no longer working with v2333.
