First of all, you can not use ES?## (or symbols with character replacements) for a Custom Calculated Symbol. You have to enter the specific contract such as ESM24. And what symbol you use depends on what service you are connected to. So whatever symbol you use for a standard chart you would use for the Custom Calculated Symbol. But, the {SPX500}/{2USNote} should have worked without issue, as long as you had the option for "Uses Formula Operator" set to "Yes". The Tick Size you use will be the smallest tick size of the instruments you are putting together. The Price Format will be driven by that Tick Size. Currency Value per Tick does not matter, as you can not trade this symbol. Please try again with {SPX500}/{2USNote}, but first open a chart for SPX500 by itself and another for 2USNOTE. Then open the chart for the custom calculated symbol and let us know what happens. Also, please get us a screenshot if there is an error by following these instructions: Support Board Posting Information: Attaching or Posting a Screenshot/Image (Optional) For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
