WTF is going on with IB. I everytime I change symbols the charts are taking forever to load anyone having this problem? anyone recommend good charting software thats reasonably priced?
well, if you are willing to use IB's charts, then ANY package would keep you happy. IB's charts are worse than pathetic. I use ensign at $40 per month, but would be major over kill for anyone using IB. Take a look at Sierra Chart. Something like 10 bucks, and most people here like it. Works with IB data.
The QuoteTracker directions for using with IB datafeed are at http://www.quotetracker.com/help/ib.shtml . Be careful with the number of spaces when entering symbols for eCBOT contracts.
