Hi Jim, try:
"Data.GetSymbolInfo(NewPosition.Symbol).Name1" or ...Name3

Though not related to MM script, how to get the ~Name1, ~Name2, ~Name3 control in Symbol parameter of a downloader?
(Symbol parameter which comes after Parser, Settings)

QS - the listing ~Name1, ~Name2, ~Name3 is available under Symbol for some downloads but not for others. Where it is not present, should we manually type this in?

It is available usually only when a "Symbol" (type) field (URL parameter) is found. Otherwise, you cannot use them.

The Downloader "Industry Updater" doesnt show Name1,etc under Symbol. My symbols have a .US suffix (stooq data). I was trying to think that if Name1 is availabe under Symbol parameter for this Downloader, it will be an easy solution. I have created Name1 without the suffix.In other words, I was trying to avoid changing the prescript to accommodate Name1.

For such downloaders, you need to use the prescript.

Trading financial instruments, including foreign exchange on margin, carries a high level of risk and is not suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in financial instruments or foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with trading and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.
