How to use IB 5-sec RT

Postby allenlowe » 29 May 2017

Hello All,

I read some topics saying that now multicharts support IB 5-sec RT Bar time. I still don't get how to use the 5-sec RT. Is it for FX only? My future realtime with IB still not same when I reload it. A 5 sec reload is good enough to me provide that the stream still update in sec. However, is it automatic to use this feature or I need to do some setting?

Thanks a lot.

Hello allenlowe,

It works for Forex data only. To get the IB 5-sec RT Bars please select "Trade" quote field in Format Instrument -> Settings tab.
