Jason Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 I am trying to create a daily chart for a symbol using IB as the source. When I right click on the chart and select Historical charts for that symbol the chart comes up but it only shows data for 27 days. This remains the same regardless of the period I select with FREQ at 1 day. I've tried backfilling but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong here. Thanks.

Jerry Medved Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 seems that IB only has that much data for that particular symbol. What symbol? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted November 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 Actually, false alarm! Sorry. It's working but the way the data was displayed in the chart made it appear as if it wasn't pulling all the data in. Not a lot of data points and had the chart stretched out horizontally. Incidentally, is there any way I can reduce the spacing between candlesticks in a chart? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 you can zoom out which will make the spacing smaller. You can adjust the various candle sizing parameters on SETTINGS / CHARTS / DISPLAY screen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
