[amibroker] Re: Possible new IB data plugin problem

I have to amend my previous post.  I have had the same kind of 
connection problems (i.e. data updates silently stop happening) with 
IB.dll 1.6.8 as I did with IB.dll 1.7.0, just less frequently.  Maybe 
that is a clue, or just a misleading coincidence.

Worse yet, even when I am connected and receiving updates, I am 
scanning a watchlist, and some symbols in the watchlist get updated 
while others do not.    

This is happening while using the prior version of TWS, 882.2.  At no 
time am I seeing any connection problem other than the lack of data 
updates.

I don't know which piece of software might be at fault now.  Guess 
I'll try TWS 881 next.  I'll also try adding all the symbols in my 
watchlist to the real-time quote list.  That should hopefully avoid 
the update delay when doing the scans.  Wish I thought of that 
earlier.
