Symbol Map reset on update

In NT8 v3 when using the BRK/B TD symbol map for a BRK_B chart, I would still get the snapshot data error, however, live data would still be available on the chart. Now it doesn't appear to loading live data with that symbol. Changing it back to BRK.B for the TD symbol map doesn't work either.
Using BRK/B or BRK.B in the symbol map for TD on a BRK_B chart will always give historical data.

I could reproduce this when upgrading from 3.1 to 4.0, but could not reproduce this when I upgraded from 3.1 to our internal build of the platform. This indicates that the root of this unexpected behavior has been resolved internally and will be resolved in an upcoming release of the platform.
When the next version of NinjaTrader 8 is released we can perform this test again to see if the issue persists or not.
For now, you'll need to manually adjust your mapping to your preference. I discovered that it made no difference on my end if the mapping was 'BRK/B' or 'BRK.B'. Both provided me with historical data.

I receive real-time data for BRK_B when the mapping is BRK.B or BRK/B when I test with my TDA connection. Which mapping are you currently using?
I'd like to eliminate the chart being the root of the issue. Lets confirm with a time and sales window. Go to New > T&S > type 'BRK_B' and hit enter.
You should see one line print almost immediately. Please wait a few minutes and see if another tick of information prints in the time and sales window.

using Excel's RTD function I get real time quotes for AAPL, SPY, and BRK/BLast edited by habibalex; 02-23-2017, 11:17 AM.

Join the club.
Be sure to change it after opening nt8 and before connecting to tda.
