anyone having problems with ib

WTF is going on with IB.
I everytime I change symbols the charts are taking forever to load
anyone having this problem? anyone recommend good charting software thats reasonably priced?

well, if you are willing to use IB's charts, then ANY package would keep you happy. IB's charts are worse than pathetic.

I use ensign at $40 per month, but would be major over kill for anyone using IB. Take a look at Sierra Chart. Something like 10 bucks, and most people here like it. Works with IB data.

QuoteTracker works very well with IB, is way better than IB charts and is free.

Ensign, Sierra, Ninja, Quotetracker, all good choices.

Yup, roger that. If you want fast, good looking charts for IB use QuoteTracker.

The QuoteTracker directions for using with IB datafeed are at http://www.quotetracker.com/help/ib.shtml .

Be careful with the number of spaces when entering symbols for eCBOT contracts.
