Customers can subscribe to paid, real-time market data on exchanges around the world. In addition, Interactive Brokers provides free delayed data as available, for any product listed on an exchange to which you do not subscribe. Delayed market data is managed in Trader Workstation (TWS), and ticker lines that use delayed data are highlighted in yellow for emphasis. For details on managing delayed market data, see the TWS Users' Guide.
We also provide real-time fundamentals and news via subscription-activated Reuters Worldwide Fundamentals and Reuters News Feed, along with various free RSS news feeds, all of which are seamlessly integrated into the TWS trading application.
To view, add, or delete Market Data and Reuters Fundamentals and News subscriptions, sign into Account Management and go to Trading Access then Market Data Subscriptions. Fees are based on exchange or Reuters assessments and are applied on a per-user basis. Market data subscriptions provide data only; to trade you must elect the proper Trading Permissions in order to receive all the proper regulatory disclosures. There is no requirement to subscribe to market data in order to trade and customers are free to receive market data from another IB account or data vendor, or to use only delayed market data.
Many exchanges classify customers as non-professional or professional. Exchange rules require that trusts and organizations (e.g. corporations, partnerships, LLCs and unincorporated businesses) must be classified as professional. NYSE and Amex Professional Market Data require prior approval from the exchange. Click here for more information.
