"Previously I was using *******. IQFeed is WAY more economical, and for my charting needs is just as good, if not better." - Comment from Public Forum Post

"I cannot believe what a difference it makes trading with ProphetX!" - Comment from Bruce in Los Angeles

"Boy, probably spent a thousand hours trying to get ******* API to work right. And now two hours to have something running with IQFeed. Hmmm, guess I was pretty stupid to fight rather than switch all this time. And have gotten more customer service from you guys already than total from them… in five years." - Comment from Jim

Author	Topic: Futures Options (5 messages, Page 1 of 1)
Mobiius -Interested User- Posts: 15 Joined: Mar 24, 2013	Posted: Mar 25, 2013 12:01 AM Msg. 1 of 5 Hello, new user and cannot easily find options on futures. In particular lets start with: Crude oil (WTI) June 2013 Call - 120Strike. There is about 30,000 open interest on this call and about 60 contracts traded on friday. I would like to find the symbol for this please. As I am new I am just unfamiliar with the symbol structure so once I get this one I should be able to figure out others. Cheers.

I then searched the symbol lookup on your site with QCM for the search string under name/description or symbol but it says that no records exist. I must be doing something wrong...

Then put in the Symbol bos QCLM13C12000 There will be a list below to choose from. Select add, press ok and close it will be in your symbol list.
