How to add a new asset to the trader's terminal.

The trader terminal allows you to trade not only currencies, but also many other assets - oil, gas, cryptocurrencies , gold, copper, enterprise shares and indices.

But sometimes traders, trying to add chart windows for the selected asset, simply do not find it in the “Symbols” window, although the broker has information on the website that they can trade this asset.

Why does the broker's specification indicate a currency pair or index, but it is not present in the terminal?

In fact, everything is not entirely true, it’s just that by default only the most popular assets are added to “Symbols” and often you won’t find cryptocurrencies or some indices there.

Surprisingly, the task can be solved in just a few clicks. Simply add the desired symbol yourself, after which it will appear in the list, and then you can add a chart window.

For example, we need to add the crypto currency Bitcoin Cash, which is often missing by default.

1. Hover the mouse cursor over the "Symbol" window and right-click to select the "Symbols" line from the menu that opens.

2. Once the Symbols window opens, find Criptopairs, open it, and select BCHUSD. If the symbol is inactive, it will be gray; if active, it will be yellow. Click "Show" or simply click the selected line.

You can also view additional information by clicking the Properties button. You can read about what you can see here: http://time-forex.com/info/specyfikacyj-treydera

Once a new symbol has appeared, you can add a chart window for technical analysis and placing new orders.

Brokers typically offer the ability to trade 40 to 100 currency pairs, dozens of cryptocurrencies, energy commodities, indices, and many other assets. Unfortunately, by default, only a small selection of available instruments is included in the symbol selection.
