quotetracker/ib dax symbol problem

I am inputting the symbol for dax and estx50 as medved says to do ie: dtbdax sep 03 and dtbestx50 sep 03 but it is not working. Can somebody put me on the right track? Yes I am subscribed to the data.

 

Easy Rider,
the problem is the spaces in the code - to get around this you put in single quotes in front and on the end of the code as per:
'dtbdax sep 03'

Cheers Les

 

I had that part of it already. It turned out that you had to put an f in front of dax and estx50 i.e: dtbfdax sep 03. Who knows why. They dont tell you that in the example they give on the website. Thanks for taking the time to reply.

 

I have this problem with the eurostoxx in neoticker and IB. has anybody got this working in neoticker? What is the symbol? I go tthe dax to work.

 

DAX -> DTBFDAX SEP 03
ESTX50 -> DTBFESX SEP 03

Good Luck.

 

The F in front of DAX is not a QuoteTracker requirement. "FDAX SEP 03" is an IB symbol. You can get that from the end of the DESCRIPTION column in TWS
