Can not get CBOE Index data from IB

Postby rezanp1356 » 13 Aug 2017

Hi,
i am subscribed to IB's CBOE data feed ,but when trying to plot VIX , the status line only shows "establishing connection", i tried SPX and OVX as well and again, i got stuck at "establishing connection",
any help would be really appreciated.

It should connect right away during market hours unless there is a problem with your permissions.

Are you subscribed to CBOE Market Data Express Indices? Does it chart in TWS? Did you add VIX as an index to the Quote Manager?
Is Quote Manager using the custom settings of 1/100 price scale or the incorrect exchange settings of 1/10000?
