IB Bitcoin Mapping
IB Bitcoin Mapping
I am having trouble getting IB bitcoin futures to chart and trade in MC. I have IB permissions and trading and charting works fine in IB TWS. When I try to chart an instrument I get a no data error in MC. See attached snip of the instruments in the Quote manager

Attached are screenshots of QM errors and a shot of my IB account market data permissions. I will also add that I have been trading Bitcoin futures with IB but entering orders in TWS and it works fine.

Re: IB Bitcoin Mapping
gpw797, according to the Event Log messages coming from the API - you do not the required market data permission for your account to access this data. If you have the data in TWS – it does not mean the same data is enabled for the 3rd party apps access (MultiCharts). You need to contact IB directly and ask them to add support for the required market for your account for the 3rd party applications. Please also keep in mind that the delayed data from IB is not currently supported in MultiCharts.
