Intra Day tick charts

oatman · Oct 9, 2003, 4:11am

I'm trying to set up a chart in Quotetracker using IB's feed. I've looked in help, but I admit I'm trying to do about half a dozen other things at the same time, and haven't sussed it yet. There's a reference to setting it up to trade.

Thanks to all replies, cheers Bonsai I now have my FTSE and DOW charts updating automatically, saves having to sit there and click refresh.

I doubt my bass would be too happy about that.

Oatman,

The first thing you need to do is ensure that the correct site is selected which is pointed to (I use money.net but this is just changed to IB) Then for equities you just put in the symbol, ie MSFT or for ES you need to type in GLOBEX:@ESZ3

You should now have your chart.

Cheers

Paul

oatman, you do not have to have IB trading configured in QuoteTracker for the quotes to work. You still have to setup TWS the same way though:

Thanks, I've got that page. Didn't want to set anything up for trading.
