Is there a tutorial to help me get my IB account and data feed setup? I am sure it is user error on my part but I cannot get it up and running.

Thanks!

If you go to the W59 help menu, under Instructional Videos -> Older Movies from W59 RT there is a video on how to set IB up. It is on the old RT platform but you should be able to figure out how to get Pro2 to work based on this video.

Good luck,
Kenn

Hi Everybody,

I am unable to connect to IB through History59 Collector. I use the right setup with TWS 32 bits. Earik told me to use an older version of TWS but when I download it I receive a message that it is no longer in use.

I receive the following Message in History59:
TWS Message: No Security definition has been found for he request
TWS Message: Stream read error. Consult TWS positions

Thank you for your help.

N.B.: I am an old user of Wave59 since March 2008. My old name was nagib56

Hi Nagib,

No security definition means that you either have the wrong symbol, or you haven't set the symbol definitons up properly. If it's coming from History59 and not W59, then it's a bad symbol. For the ES, use ES_FUT_201606_GLOBEX. Stocks are like IBM_STK_SMART.

Regards,

Earik
