IB tradestation backfill

Quote from mogul:

how do you get more than one day into AmiBroker?

maybe I'm missing something...clicking on Backfill Current but I get only today's data

I had to udate TWS to most current build 848, it then started working.
 
I just downloaded the beta of quotetracker without problems but how do I get more than two days backfill with ib tws 848? I am looking at yhoo.
 
WebUpdate after getting the beta. that should get you the IB configuration update ( I forgot to include it in the install).
 
Jerry - I seem to be only able to backfill Nasdaq issues and Futures (however some are not such as HKFE for example). Unable to on things like BA, CAH, T etc. On these it keeps showing backfilling even after nearly 5 minutes have elapsed (although they do backfill the current day relatively shortly).

same here. Amex not workin either
 
Question - do you have a current quote on the symbol in QuoteTracker prior to doing a backfill? if not, get it. Otherwise there is a bug with what QT is requesting. (hey, its beta :) )
 
I can add (after the installation) any Nasdaq listed stock with full 5 day backfill.

I already had HKFE in my streaming portfolio prior to the installation which does not backfill.

I added various ones to my portfolio such as CAH, BA and T after the installation - which are not backfilling.

I do have quotes streaming in on all the above in my portfolio section.

Hope that helps.
