Best Date Providers with IBKR TWS

S

salamanderforex

Hi Everyone,

I understand there is E-Signal subscription that I can get to add to IBKR TWS to get data. In regards to Forex AND Stocks:

1- How is e-signal better than IBKR data itself?

2- Why does IBKR incorporate e-signal in their TWS menu? I mean there are other partners but no one else is listed like them in menus.

3- Who else provides *faster AND better (please define what that means) data?

Thanks,

The Snapshot mode in your link has nothing to do with "missing ticks". Snapshot mode with IB means you request a quote and receive it. The opposite of streaming quotes.
But of course they also offer streaming data.

In the past IB used to aggregate their data stream, so you would not receive every tick information, but I think they have changed this and now you can choose the way data is streaming in your TWS, at least for times and sales:
