Hello,
Auto Trading interface is NOT the data plugin
.
Plugin is completely SEPARATE from auto-trading
interface.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can use IB data and use different trading
platform
and you can use IB for trading and different data
source.
These two are not connected in any way.
Since auto-trading interface was NOT updated recently
it does NOT understand the "-USD" ending you are putting in the symb
variable.
Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko

Interactive Brokers plugin 1.8.1 - a problem back filling
hi,
I use v1.8.1 right now and seems to have
problem with some US stocks while autotrading, It recognised BIDU and
FSLR but did not recognise X and POT. I added this to the
symbolname:
symb = Name() +
"-SMART-STK-USD";
still X was not sent. Any idea how to
solve this?
thanks, Ed

Hello,
Did you read the release notice?
If you are
using ANY non-US dollar denominated
symbols you need to specify
the currency.
This is so because IB now REQUIRES to specify
currency to resolve ambuiguity
between same symbols traded with
different currencies.
If you don't specify currency, the US
DOLLAR will be automatically used by the plugin.
If you are
using any EURO or other non-US currency you need to specify
it.
If you provide symbols you have problems with I will tell
you how you should amend
the symbols to specify
currency.
Best regards,
Tomasz
