How to add KOSPI 200 futures?

[clearpicks]

I would like to add KOSPI 200 futures to instrument list so that I can view its intraday charts using interactivebrokers as data feed. Can someone show me how to configure it correctly in instrument management window? Thanks.

Is there anyone who has successfully added this futures product to the database? I followed the instruction but it did not work.

Hi,


What symbol mapping are you using?



What exchange do you have for this instrument?



Could you provide a screenshot of the instrument settings?

Here are three screenshots.

Hi Clearpicks,


Could you please contact IB and inquire about the correct exchange and symbol mapping, after you receive this please post them so I can create this instrument on my side.

[clearpicks]

The symbol for IB should be K200 instead of KS.

Hi Clearpicks,


Please create a new instrument exactly like the screenshot provided. I was able to receive data with this setup. Also, enter K200 as the symbol on the miscellaneous tab.

Would this procedure be different in NT7? I have been trying to add KOSPI 200 futures (via IB) with these settings, but without success.
