    Hi Bob,
    The Philadelphia Indexes are on a new feed.
    See:
    http://www.nasdaqtrader.com/trader.a...=NASDAQIndexes

    What this means for the v5 users is a new ticker format:
    OSX.X becomes OSXX
    SOX.X becomes SOXX
    XAU.X becomes XAUX and so forth.
    Just like when NDX.X became NDXX some time back.

    If you just enter the new ticker, say SOXX, then you'll only get data from when the new feed started - so you'll need to either:
    1- use this expression SOX.X | SOXX - in Englishspeak that's SOXperiodXspacepipespaceSOXX (the pipe is on the backslash key above the Enter key).
    OR
    2- put in your own mod into your CompSyms.znf file
    OR
    3- wait for the system supplied updated CompSyms2.inf merge file to hit the 5.1 servers.
    OR
    4- Upgrade to 6.0.3.x and not have to mess with this or the dropped tick volume that v5 has.

    Hope that helps.
