I've just subscribed to both mytrack and sierra charts but am unsure of a couple of things...

1. what exchanges do i have to subscibe to (in mytrack) for realtime ftse and eurostoxx50 index prices?

2. what symbols correspond to these indexes when running sierra charts

thanks in advance

You need Eurex for ESTX (8 euro/month) and LIFFE for FTSE futures (£20 a month), there is also a free synthetic FTSE index available from MT.

ESTX futures are FE`M (June contract, just finishing) and FE`U (Sept contract). I'm not sure about the symbol for ESTX index, or if MT do that.

FTSE futures are LZ`M, LZ`U etc, the synthetic FTSE is UKZ.X, the 'real' FTSE is UKZ.L, but you have to pay £7 a month or so for that, there''s not really much difference, and since you can't trade either of them little point in paying the extra.
