Before market opens I setup 4 chart for daytrading stocks ...
I use Interactive Brokers but it is slow to load just 5 days of data
Is SC historical data load faster than IB? I need to be able to quickly switch between charts once I get my "hot tickers list" at market open

Another thing that is not clear to me whether SC data is lot better than IB data (considering real-time or few days of historical) ... I trade range-bar chart so I need "tick data" not "aggregated data chunks" :-)

Thanks

Sierra Chart historical data, is massively massively faster than Interactive Brokers. Probably 100 times.

And it is tick by tick data.
