lehula Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 I'm just using the free account right now. I'm trying trade futures mini like the ESZ17 and NQZ7. Can I do this on the free account. When I try to open a chart with those symbols it won't show any data. But the charts will show Google or Microsoft no problem.

Jerry Medved Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 You need to use MT symbol format for futures. The correct symbols are @ESZ17 @NQZ17 this is assuming your datafeed supports futures. Which one are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry Medved Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 Regular Ally Invest accounts do not support futures (which is the one you have). Only Ally Invest accounts on the MB Trading platform support futures. Completely separate accounts at this time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
