Loading stock symbols into the Dictonary?

[victorbrown7]

Hello out there:

Does anyone have any creative ways to batch add the NASDAQ symbols into the dictionary for integrated trading with TD Ameritrade.

It is extremely time consuming to add these symbols manually.

Without them added to the dictionary, you go through 2 separate order entry screens and have to add informaiton in both screens before you can place your order. However, once the symbol is added to the dictionary the order can be placed in one screen fairly quickly.

I really don't want to add them manually..... ! Any advice?

Hello Victor,

Thank you for the post and your inquiry. I have found that if you use the Quote Window and the right click feature on the Symbol column, you can add all the symbols at one time. This will also add the symbols to the the Symbol Dictionary which will transfer to the Charts and Trade Manager window.

Give this a try and let me know if it works for you.
