Every spelling, grouped
Measured on broker pages, TradingView broker feeds and live MetaTrader servers. MetaTrader matches symbol names exactly, including case, so UK100 and UK100m are two different symbols on the platform even though they are the same market.

What the underlying market is
Every name above tracks the FTSE 100, the index of the largest companies listed in London, priced in pounds.
Cash or futures?
A cash UK100 CFD tracks the cash FTSE 100 while London is open. Because the cash index only prints in exchange hours, the CFD follows the future outside them. Futures-priced versions such as Pepperstone's UK100-F quote the futures level throughout, which differs from the cash index.
How the RB Trading Pro Journal handles it
The RB Trading Pro Journal reads UK100, FTSE100, FTSE, UK100.cash, UK100x and the rest as the FTSE 100 and prices it live at the cash FTSE 100 level.
Trades arrive by hand, by file import, or live from MT4 and MT5 and cTrader, in whatever spelling your broker uses. You never rename a symbol to get a live price or a correct R.
Journal your UK100 trades under any name
Log trades by hand, import a file, or live-sync MetaTrader and cTrader. The Journal recognises your broker's spelling and prices open trades live.

How this page was built: spellings come from brokers' and prop firms' own help pages and notices, from the broker feeds on TradingView, and from a public dataset of 13,740 symbol names read from 241 live MetaTrader 4 and 5 servers (metatraderVPS/metatrader-broker-symbols, CC BY 4.0). A broker is named only where one of those sources shows it. Brokers rename symbols from time to time, so check your own platform's symbol list if a name here does not match.
