IB ticker for us dollar index

Usually it's DXY or USDX, but I can't seem to find it in IB's platform. Does anyone know what it is? Google came up with nothing.

Thanks.
 
The Index is "n/a", so I assume IB has no permission from ICE to disseminate it. The futures ticker is DX. With the present fairly universal low rate diffs, the nearby future wouldn't vary much from the underlying index (i think... can't check at this moment)

The IB symbol is 'DX' (NYBOT) You do not need ICE data for this.

If I put "DXM7-NYBOT-FUT-USD" or "DX-NYBOT-IND-USD" into Amibroker, it says that I don't have permissions because they both require a 120$ monthly fee for ICE futures. I asked customer service and they seemed to imply that's the only way to get the US dollar index on their platform.

All I want to do is have enough data to use it as a comparison. I can do it in ToS, but I don't really like that platform because it's so closed, and I don't know thinkscript.
