Using loop to plot numbers on a single plot while simultaneously giving each number/data point a different marker symbol.

Hello! I have been stuck for ages on this and would greatly appreciate any help. I have created an array of complex numbers (variable z) and want to plot them on a single plot. However, I want each number to have a different marker symbol so I created a string (variable markers) with the desired symbols. When I run the code, the plot only uses the last symbol marker from the character string. I know the issue is with my for loop and using hold on does not work so I am very confused. I have included a screenshot of my code. Thank you.

You need to do,
for i = 1:12
plot(z(i),'Marker',markers{i})
hold on
end
