Hello ac33 trader,
Thank you very much for your post.
"@INSTRUMENT" would act as a placeholder and is replaced with the full instrument's name and expiration.
To use a custom instrument, please enter the instrument and expiration directly, e.g. "NQ 06-23".
Please don't hesitate to let me know, should you have any further questions!
