The only way to do this is to duplicate the first chart and then change the symbol. Refer to the information for using a chart as a template here:

Thnx, Did that ... seems I have to detach the duplicated charts from the "Global window" then it changes the symbol chart by chart = then all the charts are "loose" and have to see them one by one, which is complicated on 1 screen view.

In case to keep the duplicated CB attached to "global window" then symbol changes in both CB-s. How to make attached (not detached) CB-s (2 books) with different symbols!?

Thnx,

L.

You will want to configure a chart as you require in a particular Chartbook, make sure it is attached and then duplicate that chart to the other Chartbook:
Chart Menu: Duplicate Chart To Chartbook (Chart menu)

You can then change the symbol to what you want. Instructions:
Changing the Symbol of a Chart

In order to have attached charts within the Sierra Chart main window for different chartbooks, you would have to run a second instance of Sierra Chart and have that second instance open your "second" chartbook. Refer to the following:
