Symbol search doesn't handle a lowercase query

Steps: Type a ticker in lowercase in the search box. Expected: Finds it. Actual: No results until I use capitals. Impact: Tiny, but I type in lowercase and then wonder for a second whether the symbol is unavailable.

Simple fix, going in. Thanks for reporting the small ones — they're the easiest to fix and the easiest for us not to notice.

Assumed this was intentional and just started using caps.

Closing this one: symbol entry is case-insensitive in the current build. Both places you type a symbol — the manual universe list in Settings and the replay filter in Backtest — normalise to uppercase as you type, so a lowercase ticker resolves the same as a capitalised one. Thanks for reporting the small ones anyway; they are the easiest for us not to notice.

I once typed a ticker in lowercase, got nothing, assumed it was delisted and moved on. Found out a week later it was fine. That one's on me but I'm glad it's fixed anyway.

normalising as you type is the good version of this fix, means I don't have to look at my own shouty caps all day. small win.
