Interesting that on days like yesterday with little range very few bars are incorrectly drawn. Is there anyone from IB with an interest/understanding of this issue who would like to comment?
 
Today, with a bit more range the difference is more marked.

IBs charting and data both suck, but they are a nice execution platform.

Therefore, I want an "execution only" version of their libararies, without all the fat extra charting code.

I need a leaner, faster TWS without all the baggage, designed for auto traders who are making IB the most money anyway.

I agree. All the bells and whistles should be extra front-end tools, just like the ones we use now from 3rd party supply. Even the order grid could be skipped because many use an external trader anyway.

Ursa..
 
IB, acknowledging that I'd still like a skinnier TWS, I still think that including all the highs and lows (without reducing the timeliness of the data feed) is more important.

Is anyone who can address this issue back from holiday yet?

Perhaps someone came home early when the battery in their Dell blew up?
