Biast dateformat when receiveing historical data from IB Api.. like this 1686237900


 

similar values is seen in the log..

W90 1000 1993 1686237900 4287.7500 4286.2500 4288.2500 4286.0000 4286.972197048161 7724 ?1686238123 4286.25

Is this a kind of format or error somewhere?


Anything that forum member knows anything about?


 

Not sure I understand your issue because I don't know what is "similar" in your entry and what you were expecting.

If this is the issue: date number you look at are "epoch" time. 1686237900? =? June 8, 2023 3:25:00 PM
If need help see

IB doesn't always use "YYYYMMDD" sequence on historical when requested timeframe below day, it then switch to epoch time.
Not sure there it's flagged
I detect that easily, for the next coming 13 years the first char is a 1,
anyway epoch is always 10 chars for next 200 years, if use sub-second resolution like in 1686237900.1234 , the '.' is the mark of it

I am more concerned by the "?" in your entry, this value are typical of buffer cookies and may flag that you are having a buffer read overrun or something alike.
