Hello,
1. In my tests I am getting longer backfills for STOCKS (which have shorter trading hours)
and shorter for FUTURES (which are trading almost 24 hours a day)
Stocks are backfilled upto 5 days back, GLOBEX futures ~2days.
2. Yes the API docs says that but
a) this needs to be verified in practice (to implement that IB would need to collect the data for 6 months now,
and based on their comments I doubt if they already collected that much data)
b) accessing this would require changes in the plugin
while I was asking what results you get with CURRENT version of the plugin
Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko
