Unable to create new symbol for K200 futures using IB data

11-21-2019, 11:29 PM

Hi, I am trying to add a new instrument which isn't on the Instrument list (K200 - Korea Exchange index futures) and followed the instructions using the symbol description from IB (attached). Have attached IB symbol specs and NT Instrument parameters window. I get the error 'IB unable to locate instrument'. Are you able to assist?

Hello Jasper99,

Thank you for your note.

As a test, could you please try changing the symbol mapping to K200|KSE and trying to load the instrument once more?

Please let us know if you continue to experience the same.

Hi, based on the response from my prior post I needed to add the relevant contracts into the instrument settings and then it worked. Thanks
