How to copy tickers from IB to MT?

Recommended Posts

Hello,

Is there a simple way to copy a list of tickers from Interactive brokers to MedvedTrader? 

I m running scans in IB on multiple markets. I would like a simple way to copy the results of those scan from IB to MT. This way I can run custom scans in MT. Is there a way to do so simply?

 

Regards,

Oliver

I know this topic is a little old but I was encountering the same obstacle recently and found a solution.

1. Run your scan in TWS.

2. Right click on a row in the scan results window. A menu will pop-up.

3. At the bottom of the menu, select "Export Page Content." A window will be presented where you can save the scan results to a .csv file. Save the results as a .csv file and open the file in Excel. All of the results from the scan, including the stock symbols, will be properly separated into their own cells in the spreadsheet. Select the symbols you want to import and use CTRL-C to copy them and SHIFT-INSERT to paste them into Medved Trader.
