IB Data ...

  1. Well, apparently you never received my msg as I never asked that question and the initials/numbers don't fit. Likely my fault screwing up the e-mail somehow. But anyway, I wasn't looking for an answer but only thought the information might help you out.

    Happy w/ the new status quo ... hope things don't revert!

  2. Hi Ditch,

    Nice to know! I haven't done any checks as of late but this confirms what I found out some months ago.

    May I ask which future contracts you have been checking on?

    Be good,

    IB's data has always been phenominal.

    The problem with IB in the past has been uptime. But when they are up, they FLY on ES/NQ/YM.

    I wish IB would colocate a rack of servers in Chicago so I can get my ping times down to 30 MS.

  9. - Is there a way to send IB R.T data to esignal?
    Actually i prefer to be using IB data because faster,
    but also need to be using esignal for charting

    If not, then is it nesseccery to subscribe to each of
    IB market data to be able to trade that market?

    I can use IB data for my medved Quotetracker, as backup,
    But since Quotetracker is limited feature (studies)wise and
    i have Ameritrade Apex account to feed QT, i don't see reason why to be paying for IB data and esignal both to trade same
    foreign markets.


    P.s I don't have account with IB yet.

  10. No, you cannot do that. The only datafeed you can use with eSignal is eSignal's. That is their business after all :)
