Sorry if I repeat something said already, but I didn't find it. I'm on NT trial and IB is my broker and datafeed. I thought it was possible to backfill IB's data when opening a chart but I can't activate such a feature: my mistake?

Forminute bars you should get back fill data if you open a chart with days back set to a few days.

There is no backfill data available on IB demo account, only on live account.
alright

I have a live IB account, only NT is on trial. Also I don't get backfill data if I follow your advice, ninjatrader.:(

er2 12-06. Any minute or tick charts. It only displays the data received during NT connections. If I close it and reopen it later, I get holes that are never filled as you see from the pic.

Works fine here. I would not know how to reproduce. Are there any funny messages in the log?
alright
