I know. but I need a solution without the mouse, only the keyboard. Do you know a way to do this?

I know this is a very old topic, but I was looking for the same thing (without the keyboard as well) and I found the solution, so I'll leave it here for whoever still needs it.
It is quite simple:
- Focus on the chart window
- Press "Enter"
- It will open a prompt text box (on the down left corner), the "fast navigation bar"
- Type the name of the symbol you want to open (you need to type the full symbol name, and it seems to be case-sensitive)
- Press "Enter"
- Done!

Exactly what was described in the opening post.

I need a better way to change the Symbol in the current chart. The Symbols are in the Market Watch.
At the moment the way I do this is by by pressing "enter" when the current chart selected then enter the Symbol name and "enter" again. But is not very fast. For example to choose Wheat I need to type exactly this "WheatJun19".
Is there a way to to do this faster that doesn't involve the mouse?
I would like to just go down the arrow in the keyboard in order to change the symbol.
Thanks!
