IB TQQQ December 30, 1899 only and no current date data for all.

With version 2.1 build 100, I switched to IB (Interactive Brokers) data so I can see the current days data, but still only see the previous days data. When I select a code in US Equities it shows EOD and RT: IB on the right side, so I have no doubt the data is connected to IB so don’t understand why charting is not working.

In addition, TQQQ for is showing December 30, 1899 when I switch from a code like QQQ for example on the same chart, so no data is showing. I am having the same problem with SOXL showing December 30, 1899. but it had been working. TECL is another that shows December 30, 1899. If I change to SPXL or DJI in the same chart it looks fine (other than not showing today’s data). I have gone through the set up and it all appears to be correct, eg. TWS Port. As mentioned above it shows EOD and RT: IB.

I hope someone has an easy fix for this because it’s incredibly frustrating when it’s not plug and play according to the directions.

Hi Donald,

You need to ensure that IB have enabled your account for API access, and then follow the instructions here to enable ActiveX and Socket Clients:
