After a while I wanted to give MC.net SE another try, using my IB account, but none of the charts and DOM's in my workspaces populate any more. I am connected to IB and the connection looks like it is ok.
Can somebody help, please?
None of my charts work with IB
Re: None of my charts work with IB
So, after 4 hours, the last chart has finally loaded. Wanted to try MC.net again today, after not having used it for a while (and given the recent discount offer), but unfortunately, I can't wait 4h each day for my 4-5 workspaces to load (and they really are not very complex workspaces).

Re: None of my charts work with IB
The amount of historical data that can be downloaded with the IB data feed is subject to limitations (see their API docs here). Therefore, if you haven't kept your database up to date, it can indeed a long time before all data is downloaded.So, after 4 hours, the last chart has finally loaded. WTF?

However, if you keep your database up-to-date you don't have to wait 4h each day, obviously.
Btw, this IB issue is platform independent (see, for example, SC's docs here).
