Interactive Brokers plugin 1.8.1 - a problem back filling
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 Janeczko
