For IB, this seems to work RCQHX-CBOE-OPT for the Aug 22.5 Calls.

I know I should be able to get this. According that format, this should work, right?
C BRCM AUG 06 2250-SMART-O
But I don't think it does. TWS shows SMART as the exchange, but perhaps that is wrong?
Is the last the "o" for option?

In Amibroker website try this page:
http://www.amibroker.com/ib.html
Part way down is this info:
+ plugin now accepts "O" and "OP" as type specification and treats it as "OPT"
This allows to get quotes for some options that have very long symbols (exceeding 26 characters allowed by AB).
For example to get DAX options use this symbols:
C ODAX MAR 06 5500-DTB-O
P ODAX MAR 06 5500-DTB-O
(note that there are TWO spaces between 06 (year code) and 5500 (price)..)

You got the letters - RCQHX is correct. I can pull it up on IB since it
gives one the choice of expiration and the strike price
but have not tried to get the coding correctly on AB. The I ended up
coding an Emini Russell futures is ER2U6-GLOBEX-FUT.
Hope this helps.
