  • Using EFS to load a symbol into Adv Chart?

    Looking throught the EFS reference library, it looks like all the necessary functions are available to allow me read a text file of symbols...but I don't see a way to change the current symbol currently in an advanced chart window.

    Is there a way to do this?

    Essentially what I would want to do automate the reading of symbols from a file, have them come up in an advanced chart (triggering my custom formulas)...and then with either a mouse click or keyboard click, load the next symbol from the file into the adv chart window.

    I just don't see a way to replace the current chart symbol with another...

    Hello kbford,

    What you can do is use the Dynamic Quote File feature and do symbol linking between the quote window and your advanced chart running your formulas. With symbol linking, you can click on the symbol in the quote window and the linked advanced chart with load that symbol.
