Re[2]: Esignal deal for IB customers

Hello Tony,

TR> TWS  is  not  yet  able to use the eSignal real-time datafeed, but
TR> eSignal can push trading orders to TWS.

why taint tws with data from esignal?  the only reason i could see for
this if you expect to go back in time and get fills that are not
possible.  i have never used any of ib's products, but i know people
who do.  if they are like all of the clearing firms i deal with they
pull their data directly from the exchanges.  esignal (i have this) is
slow and way behind in many times during the day.

what you need is to run ts off of ib's data then ts would at least
have a chance for calculating "somewhat" real market conditions.

TR> If  more  people  request  the eSignal datafeed input to TWS, then
TR> Scott  has  indicated  that he'll work with IB to make the product
TR> work that way.


TR>       tony
