I am having trouble with the TD Ameritrade broker connection not recognizing an symbol with a "/" character. Is this an issue with WL7? (ex BF/B, BRK/B in NASDAQ 100)
WealthData uses "BF.B and BRK.B)

The "/" symbol is valid for Ameritrade. They use it to represent different classes of stock (/A, /B, etc) , and for Units, Warrants and Rights ( /U, /WS, /R)

Since I trade a number of SPACs this needs to work for the broker connection to be useful.

Please choose topic titles that summarize the issue or question. "TD Ameritrade Broker Connection" was too general and not indicative of the problem anyhow, even a bit misleading since the connection itself is totally fine. On the other hand, "TDA not recognizing symbols with /" now does. Thanks.

The provider does internal mapping. Can you try BF.B and BRK.B ?
