FAQ
Open positions will remain unaffected. Only the symbol will change (e.g., S&P500.spot will become S&P500). Trading activity on your account will continue as usual.
Starting September 27, you will be able to trade using the updated symbols listed above. This applies only to Commodities and Indices. No changes will be made to other instrument groups.
If your Expert Advisor is linked to a symbol with the old format (e.g., S&P500.spot), you will need to reinstall it and attach it to the chart with the updated symbol (e.g., S&P500). We recommend making this adjustment over the weekend following the update, before trading opens.
