Incorrect data in TWS

Get a complete time & sales report on the stock and compare - that's the only way to really find what has happened.

As I reported earlier I suspect they are including odd-lot trades in their OHLC statistics. This should be relatively easy to spot since it would be the only highest/lowest outlier for the day.

Incidentally, the NASDAQ high for ECPG was $56.06 and NASDAQ low was $49.04. That's for NASDAQ-only trades.
 
I tried to get the data from eSignal in hope that i will not get the incorrect data (odd lot), but it didn't help, it still show the "odd lot"
 
but wait...there is more.. there is conversation going on right now at yahoo's TWSAPI group about 2 sec delay in quotes..ah..that brings some memories on another question that was never been answered by IB-why IB's clock in TWS are off by 2 sec?
i'm not buying their famous answer\argument-my PC clock is off. it's not.

I have asked this question many times to IB reps, raised tickets, but never got a satisfactory answer.
 
I do not understand how professional traders can trade with their charts, especially traders that rely on trend lines and support and resistance

For example , see the chart of MPEL
The high in the chart is 37.96 and the real high is 36.73, it is more then 1 dollar, a huge difference
 
i said it long time ago(i'm talking about YEARS,not months)-IB is using odd trades(as "much" as 2-5 shares) to define high \low of the bar or even EOD.
good luck using indicators or whatever without prior filtering their data
