I downloaded TWS, and the API from IB. I set TWS to work with active X controls. I added the symbol "YM" to the quote manager from IB. When I make the chart for YM the dialogue box from TWS comes up asking if I want to accept connection but it disappears immediately.
Whaaaaatttttt??????
Data from IB?
OK, I went through the tutorial carefully, still getting the TWS dialogue box asking if I want to accept the incoming connection but it stays up just a second then disappears. I can add the symbol to the choices in quote manager exactly as the tutorial indicates. When I add the new chart the dialogue box comes up and disappears faster then I can click to accept the incoming connection and I cannot get data from TWS.
I had exactly this problem when using dynaorder a long time ago. I recall that the solution had something to do with installation, I had not installed the API software from IB, or I had a dll in the wrong folder, something like that. Currently I think that I have followed all the directions exactly but I might have missed something in the installation.

Forum search is not working for me currently. I like this software so far but the problems I am having in getting data are a bit tedious. I understand that the data aquisition is way more powerful than TS's and therefore complicated, not a problem for me if I can basically get it to function.
I have a chart of YMU07, Dow mini contracts. I can get some of yesterday's data, but the session ending time is way off. For today I have a gap up to the time I started looking at the chart and gaps for all the times I had MC shut down. How can I get IB to fill in these gaps??
If IB is the problem then my question is would DTN be better?

Personally I wish they would throttle the backfill in a similar fashion to that like AB... which breaks up your download into 5 day segments, allowing the charts to drow faster, instead of waiting for ALL the data to download before you can see chart data....
AND if you have exisiting Data, bring up the data you have on the chart while filling in missing data..
As it stands presently I feel like I am waiting for a lifetime for 4 charts to load data.....
