Hello again Re missing IB historical charting data (intra day and daily) for the option contracts, I see it fine in other charting applications connecting to IB via the API, for the same symbol NEM-OPT-20200117-36.12-C-SMART-100-USD, so it doesn't seem to be an IB API issue as in those applications connecting via API, option tickers are charted exactly as in TWS itself. As mentioned, SC shows a blank chart or very little data. Right now, all these option symbol chart windows are completely blank. Even though they show a message "Historical download complete" (and "Symbol settings not found for current service" which you said can be ignored). Also, on the quoteboard, the Open Interest value is not showing up. So on a quote for above option, NEM-OPT-20200117-36.12-C-SMART-100-USD, I get vol, last, daily change, change %, bid, bidsize, ask, etc. but Open Interest is zero.
