I use volume and tick charts so its good news that they provide tick by tick data....But do they also backfill a decent amount of data?...When trying their demo it only let me backfill three days of tick data, I would like to see at least a week or two available..

When backfilling charts with IB, it used to backfill up to the minute your were requesting the data.....Now it only backfills only up to an hour before the request...so if you start the backfill at 10am the chart only fills to 9am etc....so if you shut down your charts at any time then come back...
