Symbol problems

[Peridot]

I am able to make a chart for the DOW but not the S&P or the NDX. Any suggestions on what is happening from TDAmeritrade to here? Many thanks. p.

What would be the TDA exact symbol names for the S&P and NDX?

Dierk, I've been changing this post as the day progresses. All fixed now and charts loading perfectly. The symbols from TDAmeritrade are as follows:

S&P 500 Index, CBOE, is $SPX.X
DJIA, NYSE, is $INDU
NASDAQ, Nasdaq, is $COMP

Thank you for following up and perhaps this post will help another person with datafeed from TDAmeritrade.

I believe the URL field is not required.

Josh, you are right; it wasn't needed. (I've only been working on this for about a week!) Thanks for the post. p.

Thanks for clarification.

- ^SP500: we will set $SPX.X as default with next NT update
- ^COMP: according TDA support $COMPX should be right mapping for the NASDAQ composite (which already is set)
- ^DJIA: NT already has set $INDU as mapping
