I just tried NYSE stocks and it works for me as
well: like CRK-NYSE-STK or CRK-NYSE
however I can't download Nasdaq stocks. I tried
for instance VRSN-NASDAQ-STK and VRSN-NASDAQ and I get again the message
that the symbol is invalid. Any ideas?

Subject: RE: [amibroker] IB stock
symbols invalid
i've been able to get AMEX and NYSE issues...by using -NYSE or
-AMEX extensions on the ticker.
eg DIA-AMEX T-NYSE but nothing for nasdaq related or
currency related IDEALPRO symbols.

it doesn't matter. My account even doesn't
work with version 857 anymore. There is something else going on.
Although I can show IB's data are coming in (using the program
VB_API_Sample.exe) they must have changed something in the format of the
data so that Amibroker can no longer read it. Weird thing is that
for some accounts it works and others it doesn't.

I've downgraded to 858.6 and am still having the invalid symbol
issue. i uninstalled both tws and ab and reinstalled.
still giving invalid symbol error.
Help....
Thanks,
Nurudin
PS
i've learned my lesson...don't upgrade till Tomasz tells you
to!
Did you upgrade your TWS to 860.9? If so, downgrade to previous
version.
