I just started a subscription to IQFEED for stocks. I have been adding symbols I wanted individually. I would like to import from list but have been unsuccessful. Has anyone used the import feature in Qoute manger to import a list from IQfeed. Multicharts help doesn't seem to be much of a help to me.

Best,
Doug

All you need to do is right-click in QuoteManager, click Add Symbol from Data Source, select IQFeed, and then use the symbol dictionary.

You can select multiple instruments to import using traditional Windows shortcut keys of shift-click and ctrl-click, then press Add or Import and it will import them all at once.

IQFeed is really great, one of the reasons is the symbol dictionary.
