Post From: Disable Interactive Brokers Data Download for Historical/Intraday

Hi, I have been using the Denali data service with IB for trade execution. I only trade Futures and I wanted to know if there was a way to disable the use of IB data unless absolutely necessary. My problem comes in that I use Tick (# of trades charts) and whenever I get IB data it throws them off. This usually only happens when I backfill afer opening the application. Also if I close IB my charts sometimes stop updating waiting for historic data. I was under the assumption that Denali had historic data as well. I have read the instructions here: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/InteractiveBrokers.php, but I am unable to circumvent the data dropout when IB is closed, as well as it appears to require IB for historic and thus I get lower quality data in my tick charts.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I am willing to buy whatever data packages I need.

Thanks,
Darryl
