Real-time price spike

Postby lingwuchung » 11 Dec 2020

Hi,

I got fake price spikes during real time mode. See attached photos.

I read some past posts that this could be resolved by some settings in QuoteManager but those posts (viewtopic.php?t=45296) were > 7 years ago and those options do not exist in v14 anymore. So what should I set in v14?

Hello lingwuchung,

In the main QuoteManager menu please select Tools -> Data Sources -> select Interactive Brokers and click Settings.

In the Real-Time section uncheck both boxes (“Include “Unreportable Last” Trades” and “Generate a new Tick with Zero Volume upon DailyHigh (DailyLow) update”).

Then please restart MultiCharts to apply the changes.
