I think I am missing something, but I cannot find a way to designate a watchlist as the source of symbols for a simulation.

There is no way to designate a watchlist as a source for symbols because it isn't really necessary.
If your watchlist is a static watchlist then you can copy the symbols and put them in the symbols selection control (Custom Symbols).
If your watchlist is a filter watchlist then you can use the same filters in the symbols selection control.

If you want to be able to select a watchlist as a source of symbols then let me know and I will add this feature in a next release.

Watchlists are my starting point and where I tinker endlessly trying to get things 'just do'. It would be very convenient if such watchlists were then conveniently the symbol source for both simulation and (when ready) real-time trading. In particular, changes to a watchlist would then automatically 'flow through' to trading and simulation.

Thus I would find it a convenient feature to be able to designate a watchlist (named collection of filters) as the symbol source.

Thanks very much for your prompt and useful responses.
