    Roger that. No solution though. Per IB (a) Data is correct (b) They have no control over the provider who is feeding this unusable data. If you don't acknowledge a problem exists, there is no need to provide a fix. I am using other sources and working on moving to another platform/broker.

  4. Pitiful aint it. IB not the only one. TOS scans have been broken for weeks.

    The programmers at these places must be millenials

  5. Look like they fixed it, finally and way past its due date.

    It's still broken - 33% of its readings are taken from securities that shouldn't be included.

    Still broken, just not as lopsided as before. So may be they filtered some issues out. Ideally the data provider should offer NYSE common only for both Tick and A-D issues and volume. Not holding my breath for such a breadth revolution.

    Looks like IB TWS TICK and A-D data are kaputt today. TICK is frozen @-72 (as of 1:30pm EST). No problem with other sources. No alert bulletins from IB on this.
