# Tickers With Special Characters

## Stock Ticker Symbols

Stocks with more than one class of shares that contain a dot in their ticker symbol need to be submitted without the dot.&#x20;

Below is a list of stock ticker symbols, if you see any are missing please report them to us at <support@nvst.ly>

The symbols in the left column are those the bot recognizes. When submitting a trade containing any of these symbols, simply just remove the dot or dash and the bot will recognize it.

## Index Ticker Symbols

Some indices have options that can be traded, and typically use an up arrow in their ticker symbol- or sometimes are known as completely different than their actual ticker. For example, the S\&P 500 is commonly referred to as SPX, but the actual ticker is ^GSPC.

Below is a list of all index tickers, if you see any are missing please report them to <support@nvst.ly>

The tickers in the left column are those the bot recognizes. When submitting an options trade containing any of these symbols, be sure to use the alias ticker in the left column.
