Re: Python API. Getting historical data in paper trading but not in live account
|
Provided both live and paper trading are running on the same computer, both can access live and historical data simultaneously. ? Note that if both access the same market data ticker, it only counts as one against your ticker limit. Also your ticker limit applies to all the tickers on both live and paper. So if your ticker limit is 100, and your live TWS is accessing 50 tickers and your paper-trading TWS is accessing 50 different tickers, then you will be up to your limit and attempting to access any more (on either TWS) will give an error. ? ? ?

Subject: Re: [TWS API] Python API. Getting historical data in paper trading but not in live account? Thank you for the information. I was testing them on 2 different computers I guess that's why. I have another question.? Last time I checked with an IB technical support they told me that only one peer can access living data feeding, and, if you try to access history data with your script,? the?gateway (no matter it's tws or ib gateway) must have the living data access.? So,? can you access living data feeding on both TWS and Gateway? simultaneously?? thanks??
