There's a fellow in Europe (Paulo) working on an ASCII history
downloader specifically for Interactive Brokers data feed. He's
offering to customize the tool for user specific situation.
MetaServerRT and its companion IBLoader seem to be on different planets
recently when using IB's simulated tick data.
The developer is oriented to pleasing his FX trader users. Whether
that's because Index Futures traders are few or not few ... I don't know.
But, a history download using IBLoader now looks nothing like a live
data file. There's about ten times as much data in a download compared
to live data. I don't see a way to throttle the history download or to
change the live data input to GlobalServer to match.
The live data includes only price changed ticks. The history downloaded
data includes unchanged price ticks. Hence the large difference in
character. IBLoader renders my indicators for realtime useless after
fixing a data hole.
So, with the idea of using Paulo's history downloader (jTWSdump)and
GlobalServer's ASCII import tool, I'm seeking help with importing ASCII
intraday 1-sec data. So far, just in all but two tries an error has
occurred. And in the those two cases where there was no import error, I
could not find the supposedly imported data.
Thoughts?
