I
cannot agree more... I struggled with quote tracker for a bit before biting the
bullet. You do get what you pay for,,,,,,

IB/AB data
A bit
off topic... I recently requested an eSignal trial and found the
unrestricted (within the number of stocks limit) availability of RT data just
too nice not to have. I had forgotten the luxury of the on-demand RT data
that I enjoyed during my MetaStock days many years ago
:-) Anyway, I subscribed to eSignal Basic and now I can't
understand how I managed to work without it: backfill at any time and
better utilization of AmiBroker's capabilities. I previously used the
IB-DLL with TWS data, as well as Quotetracker, but while that served me up to a
point i am quickly getting spoiled with seeing RT data whenever I turn on
my computer.

nothing comes without any hurdles to overcome in terms of programming and system
conversions, but to me it is worth the effort.

<SPAN

by API for access by other programs (AB), well, everybody is keeping their
fingers crossed :-) it certainly has been suggested to IB and i guess
eventually it will become available. Then, when the drain on their system gets
too much they will probably start charging for the servive.

Herman,
Thanks for your reply . Has IB indicated that backfill feature might be
available in the near future?

<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff

a period, you will have holes in your data/chart. Don't know about
futures.

<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff

to 30 days of backfill, very nice, but the data is not available andy
other way - yet.

[amibroker] IB/AB data
Hi,
I've just got myself setup with the Interactive Broker plugin for
Amibroker.
IB doesn't provide a backfill feature. I think have that right.
So does this mean I will have to keep an IB/AB connection during
each trading session?
What about futures, will I have to stay connected for 24 hours to
get all the data I want for charts or just normal trading hours.
Thanks in advance.
Greg
