0 Jerry Medved Posted September 2, 2016 Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 the symbols are @GCU16 and @CLU16 but your datafeed also has to support them. Not all do (TD Ameritrade does not - TOS uses a different datafeed) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Enginer Posted September 16, 2016 Report Share Posted September 16, 2016 I subscribed to IB NYMEX L2, but @GCZ16 or @GCZ6 or either :NYMEX do not show any data. Advice, please! (In MT, @GCZ16 shows no data, but Name = DEC 2016 GOLD ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Jerry Medved Posted September 16, 2016 Report Share Posted September 16, 2016 I checked @GCZ16 with IB just now. Works fine. If you enter the GC future in TWS, are you getting real-time update there or delayed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Enginer Posted September 16, 2016 Report Share Posted September 16, 2016 Looks like 10 min delayed. ?????shown between print and current time. My data subs show $6.00/mo for NYMEX... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Jerry Medved Posted September 16, 2016 Report Share Posted September 16, 2016 that is the problem. if delayed, then MT will not be able to get the data. Check with IB about which subscription you need from them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Enginer Posted September 16, 2016 Report Share Posted September 16, 2016 After an hour on IB Chat, it turns out that tic data only comes with the L1 package. Rep recommended I drop the NYMEX, go for US Value Bundle, (includes NYMEX,CME,CBOE) and is fee-waived with > $30 month commissions. Then add "US value bundle plus" which adds Level 2. With waiver, comes to $5 per month (he says...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
