ISLAND to NASDAQ API Compatibility


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

In a recent thread, Gordon Eldest drew attention to this little gem from IBKR, concerning a new setting supposedly introduced in TWS 10.16+:

?

?

I can¡¯t find any mention of this setting in current TWS versions 10.19 and 10.25. Of course 10.16 is now history but it does say 10.16+, so it ought to still be there.

?

Moreover ¡°NASDAQ¡± is not recognised as a valid exchange identifier in any API request. And it¡¯s not included in the list of valid exchanges for any contract. ¡°ISLAND¡± still works fine, and IS included in the list of valid exchanges for US stocks.

?

As far as I can see, the only allowable use for ¡°NASDAQ¡± is in the ¡°primary exchange¡± contract attribute.

?

Am I missing something?
