How to add symbol to the chart or other panel
Due to API restrictions, connection to MetaStock Xenith can only find symbols by the exact ticker (!)
The search engine in the Eikon platform allows you to search for stocks by text description or using letters of any case. Unfortunately, this mechanism does not apply to other platforms through the API.
For this reason, it is important to use the exact stock ticker as presented on the Eikon platform. Otherwise, you will not receive search results.
