[amibroker] Re: problems with IB plugin

Trading Reference Links

hello joe, hello tomasz,

i can confirm joe's problem, as i have started to get "symbol is
invalid" errors as of yesterday 21.10.2008 as well.
i am a very active trader using AB/IB every day. i have not made any
changes to my setup at all, but out of the 100 tickers in my amibroker
realtime quote window only about 40% receive RT quotes now, the rest
stays blank. 
i only use the IB plugin for RT data, not for backfill. but when
trying to backfill i receive the error "symbol is invalid! consult
symbology guide." symbols include tickers like XOM, AEE, EXC, CLP ...
these tickers do receive RT data in my TWS.
my setup: IB1.80 TWS887.2 Java1.6.0.07.

best regards,
dirk schreiber

for either Backfill CURRENT or BACKFILL Realtime List.   This is
coming with the use of a simple real time quote window with 1 minute
resolution in the database configuration.  Since I changed so many
things at once (I had not used the IB plugin in a while) I'm not sure
what's causing this.

and others.  I know these are valid since the work on IB and I can
display them on the IB TWS graph and real time windows.
