Oliver Posted July 21, 2018 Report Share Posted July 21, 2018 (edited) 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 Edited July 21, 2018 by Oliver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Medved Posted July 23, 2018 Report Share Posted July 23, 2018 There isn't a direct way (I am not sure - in IB can you drag a symbol?) If you can somehow get a text of a list of symbols, either comma- or space-separated, then in MT you can just hit INS on a portfolio and paste that text in.

Jason Posted August 22, 2018 Report Share Posted August 22, 2018 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
