[amibroker] IB Broker data limitations



PureBytes Links

Trading Reference Links

I just opened an account at IB brokers and was going to try the real 
time data stream they provide. I was reading in Amibroker help when I 
came across this:

NOTES ON IB API LIMITATIONS:

1. Backfill is available for REAL IB accounts only (not on demo)

2. Open price is NOT provided by IB. For that reason Open field is 
empty in real time quote window

3. The data from IB does not include a timestamp on the trades. The 
current system time is used to timestamp each tick. 

No open price or timestamp? Doesn't this cause problems in a data 
base???
