I am looking for a good charting package that works against IB. Here's what I'm looking for: 1) Able to pull down historical data from IB 2) I don't care about indicators at all, I don't use them. 3) Able to detach multiple charting windows from the main window, no MDI interface where I can't put one chart on the left screen with order management software in the middle. Something that is fast, not heavy on resources, looks appealing. Does it exist?
QT only has 5 days of backfill. I downloaded AmiBroker but for love nor money can I figure out how to connect it to IB.
Shouldn`t be too difficult: 1. Install Amibroker RT, install IB plugin. 2. Get TWS running, enable API. 3. Start Amibroker and proceed according to video: http://www.amibroker.com/ib.html http://www.amibroker.com/video/ib.html Won`t work with IB`s demo feed. Regards Hittfeld
Ensign does not have floating windows. In amibroker, select chart, click on window from main menu, select floating, then move chart wherever you want it on any number of monitors you have attached to your pc.
