Hello Michael,
You will have to ask e-signal about that. My guess is they only set up
these =2 symbols for those "they" thought were important. Maybe we
need to tell them which ones are important.
In most cases I prefer to use the 24 hour symbol and set my ts2000 to
only show the regular trading hours in the chart. Of course I am
trading intraday. With this set up I can see the overnight high and
low at the top of my chart if they are outside the regular market
highs and lows. In many cases price will move to and stop at the
overnight extreme so I like to know what it is by having it show on my
chart.
Of course this is different that what started this thread which was
discussing downloading daily bars. Sorry I strayed but thought it
might be informative.
