RE: [amibroker] data-plugins, AmiBroker Email List Archive

Hello,

Well AB and IB worked very well today on my computer (RT and even Vol charting). I do have 5.09 and IB 1.7.1. Backfield once in morning to get overnight lows/highs, ok. The problem with the status bubble (Reconnect,Shutdown,Backfill Current, and 3 other categories could be a MS window problem and perhaps best to ask AB support on that one. In terms of backfill, IB is not a historical data provider; you need to pay more for that.

Regards,

Hi,

sometimes the dataplugin statusbubble does not dissappear (I covers the scrollbar), so that is not possible to move the scrollbar in the X-Axis.

Mosttime backfill does not work correct when base-time intervall is set lower then 5 minutes.

Sometimes in one chartwindow the backfilllength is only 1 or 2 days, in other windows it is 5days.

Reconnecting and backfilling again does not work...

Overall, the plugin is (as other users also say) very unreliable.

Hello,

Are you still having the problems? Perhaps you could explain a little more.
Under Tools>Preferences>Intraday>Real Time Chart Refresh, I played with
settings of zero (I believe Ab manages overload to 50%+-, which today
lowered overall cpu quite a bit) to 1 sec and 2 sec.

Dow down over 750 points today and AB Pro and IB kept on working RT using
Vol charts.

As IB-Dataplugin is not working very well with amibroker, I do not
know what do now.
Are the other Dataplugins in Amibroker working better?
Where can I get cheap and relyable data?
Or is better to switch to other software (ninjatrader, sierrachart
(both working perfectly with IB) when working with realtimedata?

Thanks for help!
