[amibroker] Re: IB backfill for ETFs

This problem has been for a while. It is applicable mostly to iShares
ETFs. The error message means that you do not have access to
Archipelago Exchange. The backfill from ARCA is not free. I contacted
IB Technical Support and they advised me to switch to Stock(dedicated)
and select ISLAND, which is free. I can see historical graphs using
TWS (quite useless), but I couldn't downloaded data into AB. I
explained the situation to IB and I was told that very likely AB's
backend is not structured to get historical data from ISLAND but
rather via SMART, which goes by default to ARCA. 
All we need is a change to AB plugin.
Tomasz, could you confirm this ?
