IB symbol AD-NYSE bid & Ask NOT working in ver7

Postby sptrader » 06 Apr 2011

I just checked TWS (standalone version) and quotes ARE coming into TWS but NOT into MC version 7.. the bid and ask are for nyse advancing and declining issues and is VERY important to me..
I deleted the symbol and re-entered it, tried a new chart etc. Just shows "no data"..
Anyone else notice this ?

What symbol are you using? Did it work in MC 6?
I look at the data in the TWS market scanner but never tried to load in MultiCharts.

Jack: the symbol in IB for advancing issues is AD-NYSE "BID", Declining issues is "ASK". both use the same ad-nyse symbol.
I went back to version MC 6 and it works, so there seems to be a bug with this one symbol for some reason in version 7..

Stan: Just enter symbol AD-NYSE and select "bid" or "Ask", neither will work in MC7.
Since I need adv and decl values for trading, I had to go back to Ver6. I don't have ver7 installed on my trading computer, so I can't go to live chat to demonstrate it. It works ok in TWS.
IB tech support verified that the API had it working, so it must be an MC7 issue. Please try it..

Any updates or has anyone been able to get advance decline data from IB into Multicharts? I too need this critical information. Thanks

We must not have the subscription for it - we are seeing nothing in TWS either. Can you come to the Live Chat and show us?

AD-NYSE DOES work now in beta2. (not in beta1)
To make a chart select "ad-nyse" as the instrument and select "bid" or "ask" for advancing and declining issues.
In TWS you have to go to "scanner", then select "market statistics" from the left side, drop down list. It will show all of the nyse stats.
I have ES as data1 and ad-nyse "bid" in data2(hidden) and ad-nyse "ask" as data3 (hidden) - see attached screen shot.
(I added my own indicators to clarify the ratios)

** NOTE: On 4/19 it STOPPED working for me...back to ver6 for now.

Same here. AD-NYSE stopped on the first bar. AD-NASD continues okay. MC7beta1.

tekram: This issue needs to be looked at by tech support.
Maybe you can go on live chat, so they can see it.
(I can't since I went back to ver6)

This is actually an old thread, but I wanted to use the advcaning declining data from IB.

Is it possible to get historical data for the following symbols? I tried "ask", "bid" and "trade" in the settings, but it didn't work:
AD-NYSE
VOL-NYSE
AD-NASD
VOl-NASD
AD-AMEX
AD-VOL

If it's working perhaps I'm missing the correct market data subscription, so it would be great if someone could share the correct settings with me.


I get data for the following symbols on field "trade". Historic daily and minute data.
TRIN-NYSE
TRIN-NASD
TRIN-AMEX

According to Interactive Brokers there are no historical data available. So other traders know it reading here ...
