share streamTable(10000:0,`time`symbol`price, [TIMESTAMP,SYMBOL,INT]) as trades
setStreamTableFilterColumn(trades, `symbol)
trades_1=table(10000:0,`time`symbol`price, [TIMESTAMP,SYMBOL,INT])

filter=symbol(`IBM`GOOG)

subscribeTable(tableName=`trades, actionName=`trades_1, handler=append!{trades_1}, msgAsTable=true, filter=filter);
