Hello,
I'm using on a 64 bit machine
MC 9.0 beta2
TWS latest (945.2b) + IB Gateway
TWS API 9.71 (beta)
everything works...but every time I start MC it takes ages (5-8 minutes) to get the data plotted (I get waiting for data... in each chart)
then all of sudden the data arrives
note that IB connection status is green immediately after connecting and that I see my account data as soon as I enter MC
It seems that I'm having problem with some IB server (HDMS) infact I have 1 red line in the IB gateway.
Anyone having the same issue?
Any ideas?
I have tried rolling back to the latest "official" release (MC 8.8, TWS API 9.70) but still the same....

Re: IB data takes ages (5-8 minutes) to plot a chart
Hello teinba71,
What are the resolutions of your charts? What is the data range on your charts? Is there any data already stored for these instruments in the database?
Please go to MultiCharts->File->New->QuoteManager window. Check the Event Log for Pacing Violation message from IB.
The most efficient way will be to demonstrate this behavior in the live chat.

Re: IB data takes ages (5-8 minutes) to plot a chart
I started with IB thinking they were the only solution available for a few reasons. I was never more wrong. Since stepping away from IB life is a lot less stressful. I may not be speaking for all, but if you are noticing nagging problems perhaps try another broker connection. Some of the better charge about 30 cents per trade so cost is negligible. With IB I was experiencing lost orders, resulting in duplicate orders when the order was found, OCO orders not being sent at times, connection problems. Perhaps it was isolated to me, who knows. Just my two cents.

Win 7, 64 bit
Multicharts64 8.8
TWS latest (945.2b), use only IB Gateway
Java 7 (update 55)
--------------------------------------------------
I got 2 hours of historical data missing on IB charts after java update.
Downloaded the latest IB TWS. The problem persisted, I read that I needed to downgrade java to Java 7 update 55.
Now it takes about 5 minutes for the MC startups. But after the long boot time it works.
Realtime seems to work fine right away. It seems that historical data freezes and works again after a timeout.
