Anyone know how to load IB data for expired contracts on to QT? This is possible with NT7, and wondering if it's possible in QT. Thanks.
I want to thank Jerry and all the other on this thread for tipping me on how to solve the backfill issue, and installing correctly the patch. i was desperate and now it works like a charm. just like a charm!! QT is the top, and I have used it for 10 years. i am simply blind without it. i cannot function. so this is a big day for me. truly. to give something back...are you guys aware that chartpattern.com created a little fantastic program that flips charts automatically? it is superlative, and you can give your specifications. if you are interested let me know and i will send you the link. cheers, elementare
Now I cannot get historic charts to show dividends. On the charts I have previoulsy opened the dividend dates are shown but disappear when I use "clear chart data". I have used the patch and the version shows 3.9.8a. I am using the tda streamer and Yahoo as backfill. Any one else having this problem?
Just put a fresh copy of win 7-64 bit on computer. Installed latest TWS from IB (924.3a). Now I get 3 pop-ups when loading QT (3.9.8a). 1) User Account Control - "do you want to allow the following program from an unknown publisher (stocks.exe) to make changes to your computer?" 2) Quotetracker Custom Browser "Quotetracker Registration Requirement" 3) QuoteTracker - Registration Required "Quotetracker must be registered in order to use Interactive Brokers for market data" I have a TD account that links up and delivers the quotes just fine. It will not let me get quotes from IB. I went to the global config in TWS and enabled ActiveX and put in the trusted IP address (127.0.0.1) and the socket port is 7496. Everytime I hit the "start button I get the latter two pop-ups above. I have BracketTrader that hooks up to IB fine. The new TWS is alot different than what I was using. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
1) just say yes 2 and 3 - you did not apply all the files from the patch. Close QT and copy the files from the patch again
I just spent 1.5 hrs trying to get this thing to work. I post a message on a Saturday night and 5 minutes later I get a response. I proceed to fix the problem in 5 minutes. Jerry never ceases to amaze me. Absolutely the best.
