The limitation is that interactive brokers is a broker, not a data provider. You can pull data, but it's not worth the headache to me, because everything IBKR does is centered around their core business, which is that of a broker. I use polygon. They aren't expensive. It's a million times better and easier.?
May I know what restrictions or issues the TWS API has that prevents it from being a data provider? Having a dedicated data source is fine - but adds another dependency for an auto trading system...
IB says in their TWS API documentation that the intended use of the API is not as a data provider.? That continues to show itself to be true.?
