YAHOO+IB data slow and delayed

[OLIVER97]

Hi all,

I use IB as a broker. I would like to set up NT with IB for real time data and Yahoo for historical data because I want more than 1 year daily charts.

I set up a connection to Yahoo and IB and connect first to Yahoo and then to IB. I expect NT to show historical data on Yahoo and RT data with IB. Trouble is that my last bar is not the IB data. The data seems delayed on my daily chart. Only when I draw a 5min chart do i see data close to IB.

How can I get Yahoo historical data and an IB last bar on a daily chart?

Sorry, this won't fly, since market data is pulled from YAHOO too and YAHOO basically queries market data every 15 mins.

Could you put that on a to do list? Allow to get historical data from yahoo but the last bar from IB. Some software like QT does this.

Sure, I will forward this for our list of possible future considerations.

Enjoy your weekend and happy trading.
