Re: requesting midpoint data
Why don’t you just ask IBKR? If anybody is likely to be able to provide you with chapter and verse, it’s them.

What would be timely for you?
I found polygon.io to be a good source, especially as they provide flat

Re: Error. Id: -1, Code: 509, Msg: Exception caught while reading socket

Re: QQQ 1 Minute Data >6years?

Perhaps you missed it in the long discussion below, but that is exactly what was done. I am unable to get data before 5th June 2018.
