Symbol Lookup
Use this tool to look up the name or symbol of a company. For example, if you
do not know the symbol for a company, you can type in the full or partial
name of the company and get back a list of companies with similar names,
along with their symbols.
In the main menu, click
Tools > Symbol
Lookup or click the icon in the toolbar.
- Enter the name or as
much partial information as you have and click Enter.
You may also check the Symbol option and simply enter a ticker symbol
to get a company name. This can be done for either Stock
or Index.
- The closest matches to
what you entered will appear at the top of the list.
- You can load the data
directly into the Quotes Window by right-clicking the symbol and selecting Load [symbol] into Trading
Window.
- Clicking on Name
and Index
will give you a list of all indices.
