Tradestation 2000i, Tradebolt and IB

[timcannell]

Has anyone had experience with this combination of products / broker. Tradebolt simply charges per contract so if one doesn't trade but has an account with IB is this then not a 'free' way to get the IB data feed into TS2000i ? Indeed has anyone tried Tradebolt ( primarily an automatic execution tool for Tradestation )

You can get free data in TS2000i using the IB Account if you use the hyperserver interface which is also FOC. www.hypertrader.it/hserver.shtml

Aren't you still restricted to 40 symbols only via the IB feed?

40 symbols is this just 40 diofferent contracts or stocks? you still get tick information like you would from esignal or bloomberg yup?

It is 40 symbols in total which could be a combination of futures and stocks etc. The tick data does not represent the true volume traded but it is suitable for price and there is no delay. Bear in mind that there is no backfill data facility.
