I have a subscription to Barcharts.com for US Equities, E-minis and some index data and everything seems to work reasonably well except for one issue.

I tried to bring up a SPY chart and I noticed that the AMEX exchange is not listed in the drop down list in the quote manager. I can bring up ESU4, QQQ's and all kinds of index charts but nothing listed on AMEX which I find odd.

Does anyone else here use Barcharts.com data with Multicharts without problems?

regards,

Alex

Alex,

usually you can just use a different exchange. A better way however would be to create the exchange in your QM manually.

The solution was simple in the end. Instead of selecting the exchange from the dropdown list, just type "AMEX" into the box directly. I am sure at some point Multicharts will add the exchange to the list.
