I do automatic trading using API (python) in Interactive broker using non-tick data before. However, my new strategies require me to import tick data (number bars data) to my trading program and send order request to IB, may I ask how could I do this? Is there any documentation I should refer to? Thanks.

You'll need to set the 'Intraday Data Storage Time Unit' to 1 tick: Tick by Tick Data Configuration Once you have changed the setting, you'll need to delete existing data and redownload the 1 tick data: Edit Menu Edit Menu: Edit >> Delete All Data And Download Also, concerning IB data, note item #3 here: Tick by Tick Data Configuration: Instructions |

Thank you. I understood how to export tick data from Sierra Chart. But does Sierra Chart allow for live stream export of data?
