Default Interactive Brokers Data Feed

Hi,
I would like to trade with Interactive Brokers.

Does Interactive Brokers provide Historical Data and Tick Data ? If so can you tell me how much backfill they provide ?

Thanks

Hello speculator,

Historical minute and day data is supported with IB as long as you connect to an IB live account. Unfortunately, historical data is not supported when connected to an IB demo account.

Please note that historical tick data is not supportd at all.

Unfortunately, I am not sure how much historical data they exactly support. I suggest to verify this IB.
