You can transfer IB tick data into TradeStation Charting
program by using Metaserver as interface in between. You have to have Trade
Station charting software. You also have to have Metaserver interface software.
You can get a demo of Metaserver free and you can use it only for two symbols
only. Go to Metaserver.com and check.

Subject: twsapi: Charting App using TWS
price feed
I was wondering if anyone knowledgeable about VB
programming could give some input concerning how to go about developing a
real time intraday charting app to be used for charting prices received
through the TWS. Looking for advice on what the general structure of such
a program should be, etc. Thanks for any
help.

Thanks for the input "shukrainternationals"
However can't find (any) demo software at metaserver.com perhaps you have a demo for me.
I already own Tradestation 2000i
Thanks Cees

Can I respectfully ask anyone on the list if you could provide some help
with this, please..... I have TS2000i and now the Demo, but I am darned if I can
follow their "help" notes .... I am sure you will think me simple, but if you
have got it working, could you offer some notes, please, it would be most
appreciated..... I have asked few people off the list, but got no replies....

Thanks Scott... The question is mainly with the MetaServer Demo and what
exact information?one must?put into it?for IB DDE to be linking
and MetaServer Demo to be capturing the data, which then I can pass to the
TS2000i GlobalServer (TradeStation)....
?
In fact, I cannot also get the TWS Excel s/s DDE to link and work with IB's
DAX Futures data, but that is another question, which I asked IB... and as yet
no reply whatever....
?
If anyone knows what needs to be put into the TWS Excel s/s DDE cell to
display the IB's DAX Futures data, that too?would be most
appreciated.
?
Regards....

First, you have to get the quotes from IB workstation in to
TWSDde.xls.xls spread sheet supplied by IB. Call IB technical support and they
will help you on phone to download TWSDde.xls from their web site and how to
install and where to install it. It should be installed in "C:/JTS/excel"
directory.??Once you install TWSDde.xls, ask the tech support how to
start receiving quotes into this spread sheet from the workstation. Once you are
successful, come back and I will tell you how to proceed.? You cannot run
Metaserver?before successfully receiving?quotes into TWSDde.xls ssheet
because, Metaserver gets its data from TWSDde.xls??

Many thanks all for that... That is exactly what I did ... I got the
TWSDDE.xls and installed it all ... It installs into C:\IBJTS\Excel.....
?
(Cees, I presume you also put in the Expiry cell "200209") ... But when I
press Ctrl+R or the request market data, all I get is zeros... no error, but no
data either.... and I am subscribed to DAX .... is there anything else that you
can think of???
?
As for asking IB, that too is exactly what I did and asked them how come I
don't get the data appearing in the spreadsheet.... but of course, no reply
yet... or possibly ever.... ;-(

Thanks in advance for your further help....

BTW, just checking through the JTS.TXT file and it records that "Security
definition request returned 0 items for ticker id 4" .... it's as if DDE is
sending some request to TWS --- and when I request for data to which I have not
subscribed, I get an error in TWS, so that shows me that I am communicating from
EXCEL to TWS --- but the information is somehow returning a null/zeros.... is it
maybe a timestamp? or the Expiry? or the symbol is wrong?--- but then,
would that not return an error?
?
I also tried EUREX for Exchange, and still only get back zeros.... I am
baffled.....

I did not follow DAX until now, but, now I entered DAX in
TWSDde.xls DAX-200209). Under exchange, I typed DTB. I requested data and it is
showing quotes and the quotes are changing. Did you use DTB
exchange?

using TWS price feed
Many thanks all for that... That is exactly what I did ... I got the
TWSDDE.xls and installed it all ... It installs into C:\IBJTS\Excel.....
?
(Cees, I presume you also put in the Expiry cell "200209") ... But when I
press Ctrl+R or the request market data, all I get is zeros... no error, but
no data either.... and I am subscribed to DAX .... is there anything else that
you can think of???
?
As for asking IB, that too is exactly what I did and asked them how come
I don't get the data appearing in the spreadsheet.... but of course, no reply
yet... or possibly ever.... ;-(
?
Thanks in advance for your further help....

I also try to get metaserver working but I don't know how
to configure it for TWS too.
However in excel is no
problem. make sure you enable DDE and ActiveX in TWS settings start
the TWSDDE.xls in C:\jts\excel allow excel to run macro's Go to the
tab tickers on line 5 put in your IB username type in Symbol AX in
type FUT and Exchange DTB put the cursor in the field AX push the button
reguest market data in line row 2 and ...... presto?? DAX
data
But now the solution for Tradestation via
metaserver......

First, you have to get the quotes from IB workstation in to
TWSDde.xls.xls spread sheet supplied by IB. Call IB technical support and they
will help you on phone to download TWSDde.xls from their web site and how to
install and where to install it. It should be installed in "C:/JTS/excel"
directory.??Once you install TWSDde.xls, ask the tech support how to

You now know where DAX is in the TWDde.xls. Write down its row
number and column number of its last price. The column of the last price must be
13. Let us say, the row # is 15 and column # is 13.. Write it down and keep it
aside.
?
If you have installed Metaserver correctly, (I presume you
have), then, once you bring up Global server 'on-line' you should get Metaserver
window popping up. Do this happen? Once you get Global server up on-line and
Metaserver window pops up come back and we talk. If you want to go through this
process fast and want to make your $million today itself :), then give me a call
(905) 257 3554) once you have Metaserver window up.

In Metaserver:
(i) Against 'Symbol Name', you put your symbol (whatever you
have typed in column #1 in your TWSDde.xls spread sheet. Make sure you type it
in same case (upper case or lower case).
It is also important you have the same symbol in your global
server (upper case or lower case).
?
(i)Next, against ?DDE: you type 'excel.exe'.
(ii) Then, go into 'Trade/Volume'.
(iii) there, against 'DDE Topic' you put'
TWSDde.xls'.
(iv) Then, against 'DDE Item' you put 'R15C13'.
It means row 15 and column 13.

Yes MetaServer pops up... and I have the row and column # from
Excel.....?get the infor from that particular row for the symbol I am
collecting
?
In MS Symbol name I put in: DAX
in DDE put in: your user name that is in the TWSDDE.xls
?
In Trade/Volume, Trade Record is ticked, and DDE Topic is:?tik ....
?and the DDE Item is: id(plus number displayed in your xls for that
particular symbol)?last, eg. for me, it is: id29?last
?
And whatever the pattern is in these fields I just duplicate for all the
other fields, right? eg. id29?LastSize for Inc. Volume and the GlobalServer
does the rest..... and so on
?

You now know where DAX is in the TWDde.xls. Write down its
row number and column number of its last price. The column of the last price
must be 13. Let us say, the row # is 15 and column # is 13.. Write it down
and keep it aside.
?
If you have installed Metaserver correctly, (I presume you
have), then, once you bring up Global server 'on-line' you should get
Metaserver window popping up. Do this happen? Once you get Global server up
on-line and Metaserver window pops up come back and we talk. If you want to
go through this process fast and want to make your $million today itself :),
then give me a call (905) 257 3554) once you have Metaserver window
up.

First, you have to get the quotes from IB workstation
in to TWSDde.xls.xls spread sheet supplied by IB. Call IB technical
support and they will help you on phone to download TWSDde.xls from
their web site and how to install and where to install it. It should be
installed in "C:/JTS/excel" directory.??Once you install
TWSDde.xls, ask the tech support how to start receiving quotes into this
spread sheet from the workstation. Once you are successful, come back
and I will tell you how to proceed.? You cannot run
Metaserver?before successfully receiving?quotes into
TWSDde.xls ssheet because, Metaserver gets its data from
TWSDde.xls??

Thanks Scott... The question is mainly with the MetaServer Demo
and what exact information?one must?put into it?for IB
DDE to be linking and MetaServer Demo to be capturing the data, which
then I can pass to the TS2000i GlobalServer (TradeStation)....
?
In fact, I cannot also get the TWS Excel s/s DDE to link and work
with IB's DAX Futures data, but that is another question, which I
asked IB... and as yet no reply whatever....
?
If anyone knows what needs to be put into the TWS Excel s/s DDE
cell to display the IB's DAX Futures data, that too?would be most
appreciated.
?
Regards....

You MAY...
But try an be specific as to
exactley what your problem is. If this problem is related to
TS2000i (whatever that is), you might not get to many
replies...
Don't get upset. It just means your either fishing
with the wrong bait, or fishing in the wrong
pond

WOW.... I will try your method also... I tried what I put in and it worked
as well.... However, I suspect that your method is more general and correct, as
in my case the ID# will change every time I start the spreadsheet and so I'd
have to change the MS everytime....?
?
Thanks for your help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great...... really.... now if
only I'd make my million I'd send you half!

In Metaserver:
(i) Against 'Symbol Name', you put your symbol (whatever you
have typed in column #1 in your TWSDde.xls spread sheet. Make sure you type it
in same case (upper case or lower case).
It is also important you have the same symbol in your global
server (upper case or lower case).
?
(i)Next, against ?DDE: you type
'excel.exe'.
(ii) Then, go into 'Trade/Volume'.
(iii) there, against 'DDE Topic' you put'
TWSDde.xls'.
(iv) Then, against 'DDE Item' you put 'R15C13'.
It means row 15 and column 13.
