Hi Eugene, I am finally getting around to trying JBookTrader with other symbols, which I had asked about before.
I've installed the software and was able to make JBT run via Eclipse. But, I don't see where I can add/change the symbol. How do you do this? At this point the only symbol I see is the sample ES. Also, I don't really understand how you select or load the indicators (sorry, I'm not a programmer). None of the indicators appear in the first column as they do in the user guide image. Do I have to highlight them in Eclipse first to select them? or will they all appear/run automatically when the book data stream is activated? Thanks. I know these are noob questions, but I couldn't find any help in the group material.
