It is not possible to rename directly a ticker symbol from QuantShare menus. In order to rename a symbol (Example: A change in a company's ticker symbol), you will have to delete the old symbol (Symbol -> Update -> Remove) then create a new one (Symbol -> Add). The problem with this approach is that you will lose all data (historical, intraday, tick and custom) associated with this stock or security. To rename a symbol without losing data, you will need to create and execute a single-line script. Steps: - Select "Tools" then "Script Editor" - Select "File", "New" then create a new script - Type the next formula: Symbols.RenameSymbol("OLD NAME", "NEW NAME"); - click on "Execute" to run the script and rename the ticker symbol
