Sorry, but Amibroker is not very reliable with IB-Data.Sometimes it works, but most times there are a lot of problems with it. If you open different Charts (different Symbols), Amibroker always stops getting Data from IB. In the right bottom corner, says connected, but you do not get new data. You always have to reconnect.
Sorry, but I read the instructions. I tested it a long time. Compare it with other software. You will see, with Ninjatrader, Sierra Charts ... you do not have to care about any settings, it just works. Amibroker looses connection from time to time.

Hello,
Also read this (to the VERY END of document):
http://www.amibroker.com/ib.html
With default settings AmiBroker attempts to backfill not 5 days but
*30* (THIRTY) days
and that is 6 times more than IB capability per single request (IB
allows only 5 days in one request).
To get 30 days program needs to split it into 6 requests.
So if you are comparing to 5-day only backfill you are comparing apples
to oranges.
So you would need to change backfill length to 5 days in the plugin
status menu
as explained in the document referenced above.

Hello,
It works just fine with AmiBroker and exactly same speed (or better).
Something is wrong with your setup (probably incorrect database
settings).
You need to configure database exactly as shown in the video:

I always had problems backfilling data from Interactive Brokers into AmiBroker, but then I started using NinjaTrader and I haven't had much problem with it. In NT, I am able to load up to 20 different futures charts with 15 days of 5 minute bars without a problem, and it only takes about 1 minute to do so. I just tested it with AmiBroker using only 1000 5 minute bars and it keeps choking on a single symbol. This makes me think that either something is wrong with the IB plugin for AmiBroker, or NT figured out a clever way around the throttling issue. Is there anyway we can look into the IB plugin to make it work better? I really want to use AmiBroker with my IB datafeed.
Thanks,
Chris
