When placing a forex chart order to TDAmeritrade (TOS), I receive the following message: "Order Error - TDA order update. Please enter a valid stock symbol" My data connection to TDA seems to be fine. I am wondering if this is just because of the spelling in the order, e.g. "EURUSD", while perhaps TDA is expecting to see "EUR/USD"? Or is there some other explanation? Thanks |
