1. when I try to connect to IB demo using the stock application that it provides with the samples, I cannot get market data. I am only trying to test it and don’t care on quality or timeliness of the data. what stocks will work on the IB demo?

2. Could you run 2 instances of TWS, each one listening on a different API port…. One instance of TWS logged into the demo account, and the other instance logged into your real account that has subscriptions to the market data? Then just use one connection for the data, and the other connection for «everything else» ?

   By the way, if you have a demo account linked to your other IB account (which has data subscriptions), I do believe that the demo account gets access to the market data, as long as you aren’t using it in another instance of TWS.

3. it works from my paper a/c . but when I try with the demo a/c that you can open with ib. its supposed to eb 1 week delayed data. but it does not work as they document it on their website.

   the only orders and data that works is forex data

4. I’m not able to get the IB API working today. Last night, I could not even connect and today I can connect, but my requests are never returned. I’ll try again tomorrow.

5. The API is working for me again as of this morning.

6. I see from the screenshot that you are asking data for a stock (TSLA), but are asking for MIDPOINT pricing. I think that parameter is applicable to forex, not stock. Can you try again with «TRADES», instead of MIDPOINT?
   Others already mentioned that you should ensure that you have subscriptions to the relevant market data.
   Another warning is that sometimes data is not available during weekends (especially Saturdays).

When I try to get historical data for symbols IWM and GLD, I get the
following message:

Error 162, Historical Market Data Service error message: No market
data permissions for ARCA STK

When I make the request, I specify SMART as the exchange.

Other symbols such as SPY, QQQQ work fine.

Has anyone had this problem???

thanks,

Dwight

Can you get realtime quotes on GLD and IWM through TWS? When I do it
through TWS, I get a contract selection window. SMART is the first (and
works for me when I select it), but ARCA is the second. I get a quote
(it’s closed now, so I just see Last and Change). If I try and open a
realtime chart, I get the same error you get in the menu bar. I never
tried to pull historical for GLD before now, but I guess I’m not
subscribed to the ARCA feed. Maybe check your account settings on the
website?

(continuation) I just checked my account (Trading Access/Market Data
Subscriptions) and I’m not subscribed to ArcaBook ($10/mo). So this error
is correct for me.

Yes I have had the same problem, and it is because Arca went funny.
It is easy to get around though. The problem that you have is that
you are using SMART as a routing for historical requests.

What you need to do is switch from SMART to say ISLAND (that is what
I use) and then you get the historical data without any problems.
Though, don’t do this for ordering because then you will get whacked
with additional charges.

I’ve also had this problem and using ISLAND as the exchange and primary exchnage does work, but don’t use it on all of your historical requests universally as SMART and ISLAND return different open/high/low/close values for the same timeframes

Orionn <gigabackup@…> wrote: yes, sometimes. try using ISLAND instead of SMART.
