Post From: Question for Kiwi: "On Latest IB Data Fix"

Yes.

I use livetrue to get "live updates" on true data charts (because volume profiles on td based charts are more accurate).

And I use truelive to get "corrections" on live data charts for trade entry (because it seems more valid to place the order from the live chart. Also because truelive's processing is a little less complex than livetrue's. :)


Unless the SC team took the approach of buffering input to the .scid file for > 5 seconds to allow the next -td bar to arrive there really isn't a better way to do this. If they did buffer it they'd have to correct the chart to the buffer+file rather than just reading the file as I think they do now. So ... added complexity to a core function!

Even if they do that it doesn't change the actual output so its probably a waste of precious time. With the high quality developments and directions they have now its better that they stick with their plans.
