My datafeed is interactive broker. The future weekly option for the 1st week of the month doesn't work in sierrachart. Take euro fx weekly options from CME for example: The symbol for an option expiring tomorrow, the last Friday of the month, is EUR-FOP-20140530-1.365-C-GLOBEX. Using this symbol, the chart loads without any problem. For next week, the 1st Friday of June, I try to open a chart with the symbol EUR-FOP-20140606-1.365-C-GLOBEX, I got the message "Symbol is unknown". The same symbol format is working for other weeks of the month, except the 1st week of the month. What's the correct symbol for it? |

We do not know the answer to this. You really need to rely on IB support for this. Each part of the symbol is sent to the Trader Workstation as is. So you have full control over the symbol specification given to trader workstation. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.
