## How to add trading symbols from the CQG connection? <a href="#how-to-add-trading-symbols-from-the-cqg-connection" id="how-to-add-trading-symbols-from-the-cqg-connection"></a>

By default, we do not provide a predefined list of symbols (maybe in the next updates we will add default symbols). To find the desired symbol, go to the [**Tradable Symbols**](https://www.ampfutures.com/trading-info/margins/) page on the AMP site where you can find a correct ticker. Also, we’ve prepared a list of the most frequent trading symbols for the futures market.
