f:q doesn't "recognise" symbols, it offers them to your chosen quote-source. I have no idea what you mean by "more standard". > GnuCash seems to only allow me to create securities with symbols X:Y where > X is "type" and Y is "symbol", and the ":" is non-optional. How can > GnuCash track "BTEM.L" ? What do you mean by "seems"? You create the security using the correct symbol for the quote-source you wish to use, which in this case is apparently BTEM.L, and this will allow Gnucash to retrieve prices. I just did that, successfully. _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
