Charting Option Contracts

[edbrady]

Trying to chart QQQ AQ, which is the Jan 2010 43 calls.

Used to be OPRA:QQQ AQ
Now it is defaulting to P:QQQ AQ

I also see no candles when I select that contract.

Any advice?

Hey Ed,

I noticed in a recent post of yours that you recently re-upped with QCharts. Is your Account subscribed to OPRA?

Regarding the exchange of "P" that you are seeing, there's info on that in this thread...

Looks like Opra is part of my package.

Assuming you have the symbol in a quotesheet with at least fields Symbol/Last/Net/Title,
and those values are filled in OK,
and a Daily chart with SYM=Green in title bar,
and you click the symbol in the quotesheet,
and you get a blank Daily chart...
then I'm at a loss why chart isn't filling in.

If using Montage, and clicking from the set of syms in the montage, the Daily charts have to have...
SYM=BLUE for calls
SYM=YELLOW for puts

Else, I got's nuttin'....

Hi Larry:

Yup - everything is exactly as you said; strange stuff.

I will keep at it.
