The symbol descriptions are provided in symbol lookup in The DownLoader. You can access this as follows: Start The DownLoader. Click File | New | Security. Click the Look Up button. Change the Type column to Future (RTD Symbols). Set the Group column to All. Select Name for the search option. Type the name of the security name you want to find, like Euro Dollar. You will see several Euro Dollar listings and each will use a different ticker symbol. For example the Euro Dollar traded on the MCE exchange uses Ticker Symbol UD. Euro Dollar (Composite) traded on the IMM exchanges uses Ticker Symbol ED. Euro Dollar (Day) traded on the IMM exchanges uses Ticker Symbol 2ED. Euro Dollar (Globex1) traded on the IMM exchanges uses Ticker Symbol 1ED. The files on the Historical Data CD are all continuous data so the symbols are modified to continuous symbols. On the CD you will find Euro Dollar (UD) traded on the MCE exchange listed as Euro Dollar Continuous. On the CD the continuous symbol is @:UDc1#I. On the CD you will find Euro Dollar Composite (ED) traded on the IMM exchange listed as Euro Dollar (Composite) Continuous. On the CD the continuous symbol is @:EDc1#I. On the CD you will find Euro Dollar Day (2ED) traded on the IMM exchange listed as Euro Dollar (Day) Continuous. On the CD the continuous symbol is @:2EDc1#I. On the CD you will find Euro Dollar Globex1 (1ED) traded on the IMM exchange listed as Euro Dollar (Globex1) Continuous. On the CD the continuous symbol is @:1EDc1#I.
