I have package 5, when I attempt to pull up an intraday or historical chart for ASHR the download fails from IB (shouldn't it use SC's data service anyways?):

We can tell from this Message Log that the Sierra Chart Historical Data service was used for this symbol but that data is delayed by 15 minutes and the most recent 15 minutes needs to come from Interactive Brokers.

This is the error from IB:

HD Request # 221 | Message from IB: The contract description specified for ASHR is ambiguous.. IB Error Code: 200. Request ID: 34. |

You will need to use a more complete symbol specification which includes the exchange and the currency. Refer to this section here:
