What is the MB Trading Dollar Index Symbol?

What is the working MB Trading Dollar Index Symbol? My DX chart quit working when I switched to MBT from Zen-fire. I've tried to create a dollar in Instrument Manager for the Au X0 dollar symbol from ICE but it says "You must set at least one symbol map value." I've entered Master instrument as AU_X0 with a tick size of .001, instrument type Index, currency UsDollar, Sim feed start price 80, Description "Dollar Index on ICE" and selected the Ice Exchange.

Hi ProfitPilgrim,

Thank you for your post.

When setting up the instrument you will want to input a symbol map, and for the AU you would define that for MBTrading on the Misc tab.

As for the Dollar Index it should be DX in the Misc tab when you hit Edit. If those do not work you may want to contact MB Trading regarding what symbols they use, then input those values in the MB trading symbol map.
