    Hi Roy

    Can you provide more detail. Along with the ticker can you provide the full security name and the last price you have, your base currency and the securities traded currency or just post a screenshot of the Quote Loader window after you click GET PRICES but before you save.

    With this information I may be able to help.

    Hi Roy

    For the ticker BNQPY and LNSTY try changing the source to Yahoo or Yahoo HD. It does not look like FT support these securities traded in Dollars.

    Hope this helps.

    Those did not work but tried the other source on the list = AlphaAdvantage.
    Saw it needed key so Googled them to see what they were etc. . Got a free
    key and that worked with no exchange .

    Thank you , Roy

    The default exchange for FT is London. The default exchanges for Yahoo and AlphaVantage is the US consolidate market. Hence the potential need to change the exchange used depending on the market and why some sources will not have the desired stock and/or in the wanted currency.

    Hi Roy

    As you can see from my screenshot in post 3 Yahoo HD does work as a source for your two tickers. Looking at my screenshot did you miss the fact that no Exch Mods are set?

    Have Fun, Stay Safe.

    I was able to get it to work.

    To work - I got a free key from AlphaAVantage and use that as the Source
    for the two that I had problems with. And then set the Echange to "No
    Exchange" for them.

    And then it started working Great!

    Thank you for all the help, Roy
