Seconds charts with IB

[mayham]

Hi,

Has anybody been able to retrieve historical second charts with IB? I was able to at one point but for some reason can not any more.

Will the retrieval of historical second charts with IB be supported with NT7?

Thanks

Hello,

IB will be supported in NT7.

What type of chart are you charting? IB with NT does not support historical tick data unless you store it live:

Hi Ninjatrader Ben,

Thank you for your answer.

Using IB, I would like to be able to retrieve historical data to view a 10, 20 or 30 second candle chart. Would I be able to do this with NT7?

Thanks

Hello,

This is not supported, because you would need tick data to do this.
