Importing Forex Symbol list

[TraderYoda]

Hello Support

I'm trying to create a new Instrument list for 28 Forex pairs. I tried to use the Import Stock Symbol list feature but I have to enter an exchange but there is no exchange option for Forex. I know there is no central exchange for Forex but how do I import the list without having to manually add one by one?
Appreciate the help

Hello TraderYoda,

Thank you for your post.

Unfortunately, the import stock list feature is limited to stocks. Here is the Help Guide on Importing a List of Stock Symbols to assist you further.

Here are steps to add forex instruments:

• Navigate to the Control Center > Tools > Instruments window.
• Left-click on the ‘add’ button that appears near the lower right-hand corner of the Instruments window.
• Enter instrument-specific symbol mapping, exchanges, and other information on the Instrument editor that appears. This information will largely depend on your broker or data feed provider’s specific settings regarding the instrument in question.
• Left-click the OK button once each field has been filled out with correct information.

The new instrument has now been created in your database. Should you wish to add this instrument to an instrument list:

• Navigate to the Control Center > Tools > Instruments Lists window.
• Left-click to select the instrument list that you wish to add this instrument to in the left panel, then left-click on the ‘add’ button at the bottom of the right-hand panel.
• Type the name of your instrument in the search field that appears. Press the Enter button on your keyboard to confirm this change.
• Left-click the OK button to close the Instrument Lists window.

Your new instrument is now added to the instrument list of your choice.
