[amibroker] Re: IB Backfill

["billbarack" <wbarack@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I changed my Base Time Interval to 1 minute and put in 500,000 bars 
to load. I have one symbol only and when I connect and it backfills, 
it does not overwrite any missing days from when I accessed IB and 
collected the data. Is this the way it should work? Do I have to 
delete my previous data to get IB to backfill for the 30 days?

I feel I'm missing something basic here.

Thanks,

Bill
