I'm trying to retrieve all Brent Crude contracts like this (C# API):

var sl = new SymbolLookupCriteria();
sl.Mode = SymbolLookupMode.SymbolStartsWith;
sl.DesiredResultCount = 1000;
sl.ContractKinds.Add(ContractKind.Future);
sl.SearchText = "NSEA-M";
OECClient.Global.SymbolLookup(sl);

In the callback however I only get 50 contracts and the DesiredResultCount is set to 50. Any idea what's going on? Is there some other setting I'm missing?

Dave,

This is expected behavior. Symbol lookup will truncate results based on your "Quote" limit.

The default data limits for the OEC data feed are the following:

10 Charts (MaxBars) (5 of which may be tick-based)
5 DOMs (Depth of Market) aka Price Ladder or Matrix
Histogram limit = MaxBars + DOM
50 Futures Quotes
50 Options on Futures Quotes

Dave,

DesiredResultCount is restricted from above by server's settings.
Right now it is 50
