twsapi: Charting App using TWS price feed

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

But try an be specific as to exactley what your problem is. If this

Don't get upset. It just means your either fishing with the wrong

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.

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:&#92;jts&#92;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 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?

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......

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.
?

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.

Many thanks all for that... That is exactly what I did ... I got the TWSDDE.xls and installed it all ... It installs into C:&#92;IBJTS&#92;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:&#92;jts&#92;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......
