Re: [amibroker] Re: Urgent! AB Real time displays incorrect data with IB data feed

I'm using AB it to generate real time indicators with interactive brokers data feed to evaluate trades most days  I have found no problems..........  switching between IB screens and AMI Broker, I see only occassional and minor discrepancies which are resolved at the next update..... I'm using one minute bars, but every update every few seconds the bars move.  I'm not fast enough looking between screens most times to catch them different.  Real time isn't real time.........  computers take time..... and different times to perform different tasks, but watching multiple indicators move in near real time is a genuine enhancement to watching the IB charts or the AB price chart only.
 
What kind of errors are you seeing..........??  I haven't encountered anything I would call a problem.

Hi,
I suppose there is no solution to this great problem in AB.
Hence It can not be used as a real time trader.

Anybody is using it for real time really??

Thanks
