Post From: Help with custom symbols for building a spread (soy crush)

Hi,

I'm trying to plot the Soy Crush spread, which uses ZS, ZM and ZL.

ZS and ZM/ZL have different months. Therefore need to customize symbols to ignore contract months not shared. Under Global Symbol Settings I made a duplicate of the three symbols, and on the duplicates, under the General tab, unticked the months not shared (V/X/Z).

Lets take ZL for example. The duplicates' name is "ZL-######-ECBOT - Copy". I also renamed the Historical Chart Symbol to "ZL?##-Copy". I'm trying to pull up that chart by typing the new name. Tried both ZL-######-ECBOT - Copy and ZL?##-Copy, both using either ## or 01 (ie, the next contract, which is Jan).

Chart fails to load up.

Could you tell me please what am I doing wrong?

Thank you
