Subject: Re: [amibroker] Re: 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
