    Hi everyone. IB now provide one-month data backfill. I would like to know how to get the backfill data into tradestation. What I can achieve now is get the real-time data into TS, but it needs my computer power-on all the time.

    Thanks for any comments.
     
  2. Do you mean Tradestation 8, 7 or TS2ki?
    For TS2ki there are tens of soultions, and for
    you can use metaserver,Ondemand server for
    realtime and backfill with historic data.

    Owndata2 For Tradestation 8, opens eSignal
    , Interactive Brokers (TWS), Patsystems (J-Trader)
    , TradeStation2000i GlobalServer, CyberTrader,
    Universal DDE, ASCII (plain text) and other data
    sources to you. It allows you importing ASCII files
    to native TradeStation 8 data
