Initial problem resolve /// My setting on Multichart was to load data from yesterday. I did set it to load the last 2000 periods.



Hello

Yesterday, I had my account opened with IB and I started to receive quote from them.

Is there a way to get forex historical quote and add it to the one that i received since yesterday. I want to backtest my ideas, but 2 days is not enough.

Hi, sorry but IB is one of the worst brokers for backfill or really data of any kind. They are good for equities and executions and cheap commissions, but for data you need to really use someone else like IQfeed.

Thanks Mike

I understand your point, and I will get a more professional data feeder one day. For the moment, I learn how to deal with MC, EasyLanguage, IB etc.

Have a great day
