IB-Data for Z3N and UB not received by MC

Postby PK1 » 08 Feb 2014

In QM for the futures Z3N and UB the symbol root is defined as necessary but requesting data there's always the response that the query returned no data. The other treasury futures work fine as single contract ad custom (continuous) future.

What did you do to the symbol root?
What do you mean by "the symbol root is defined as necessary"?

QuoteManager.SymbolDictionary there are the root definitions for the symbols. For the named symbols the definition was implicitely given and seems to be correct. So I did not change it.

Hello PK1,

Please add the symbols from the data source:
In QuoteManager please go to Instrument tab->Add symbol->From data source-> IB->Futures->Z3N->Lookup.
In QuoteManager please go to Instrument tab->Add symbol->From data source-> IB->Futures->UB->Lookup.

If you have "no data" on the chart please check the QuoteManager Event Log.
If it says that there is no subscription for these markets - please contact your data provider directly to adjust your account market data permissions.

@Henry I'm asking here because QM tells me that the query returned no data, as I wrote in the first post. If I had no subscription the return would say something else. I couldn't state this unless I've created the symbol already

Right now I can load data for UB, real time and history, recent tries gave me no data.
After live chat with IB it seems there is a data prob regarding Z3N.

... IB Prob I think, thread can be closed
Thanx to Roman and Henry!
