When needing to make a trade where speed is the priority, what is the quickest way to populate and execute a stock or futures symbol with SC? (assuming there is no existing DOM/chart etc for that symbol) Thanks. |

Thanks, that's helpful to know; however, I would be trading real-time news reports where the symbol cannot be predicted, therefore a list would have to include nearly all instruments. Any thoughts for the best approach in that scenario?

Refer to the information here and the section after it for how to change a symbol from the keyboard for a chart: Changing the Symbol of a Chart: Quickly Changing the Symbol of a Chart to a Symbol for which a Data File Exists Just keep in mind that data will need to be downloaded for the symbol if it is not already being tracked elsewhere within the application. Therefore, the change to the symbol, no matter how you do it, may not be instantaneous.
