#### Why can't I find a contract in Multicharts? Why does it say my symbol doesn't exist?

Some companies will use different symbols for different trading classes or multiplier values. This is popular comparing in cases such as ES and MES where the only unique variant is the multiplier.

In these cases, you may need to create the symbol mapping yourself. This guide can walk through those steps directly: [https://www.multicharts.com/trading-software/index.php/Symbol_Mapping](https://www.multicharts.com/trading-software/index.php/Symbol_Mapping)
