Postby TW » 26 Nov 2012

I connected real-time data from IB symbol of NIFTY12NOVFUT.

Hello TW,

You experience data spikes coming through IB API. They do not filter them on servers, they do this only in IB TWS. CTRL+R to reload the chart will help you to get rid of the spikes and "Generate a new tick if total volume changes" check box will help you to avoid them in future.
