Interactive Broker Symbol Error

[swancapital]

I'm using IB Controller to hit orders for NSE futures. The symbol name is in the format of "ACC19MAYFUT-NSE-FUT-INR" but for symbols with a hyphen in them it causes an error. For example "BAJAJ-AUT19MAYFUT-NSE-FUT-INR"
How do I solve this problem?

Tws symbol issue

Dear all, Thanks for support everybody provided till date, I am doing well after reading all topics. I am successfully able to fetch data from TWS. but there is problem with only one specific stock of NSE (Indian Stock Exchange) others working fine. HDFC-NSE-STK-INR working fine for HDFC but TWS given MCDOWELL- (already -in symbol name) which results in MCDOWELL--NSE-STK-INR , but it didnt work. So my question is how can i get it in to amibroker? [image]

This will require IB plugin update - IF YOU BUY the software - you will receive updated plugin.
