When
loading a chart I get the message 'Invalid Symbol'.
This
is a message that is displayed from the IQfeed software
to say it has been unable to identify the symbol requested.
The
Symbol Guide and Symbol
Lookup are available from the IQfeed web site.
Some of the common symbols used are covered in CD2 of the
TUFXP Course
Opening
a New Chart
If this message is received when opening up a new chart
then the symbol may have been mis-typed or the symbol requested
may not exist in the IQfeed data base.
The
chart space will be loaded 'blank' and should be deleted.
Reload a new chart using the correct symbol.
Opening
a Worksheet
If this
message is received when opening an existing worksheet then
the worksheet contains a reference to an non recognised
symbol. There will be an empty chart that relates to the
symbol in group of charts. The empty chart should be deleted
to prevent the message being received the next time the
worksheet is loaded.
Note:
Two commonly used symbol pairs are:
GBPUSD.FXCM (for the Pound Dollar)
EURUSD.FXCM
(for the Euro Dollar)
