this was definitely due to IB and it happens quite often (I would say once per month these days) that H/L/V is missing and the charts will not update and no backfill is possible. Took quite some to fix today for some reason ...

I was using the back fill button on the CONN line but it would just hang up and not complete. I would have to cancel the back fill to get the back fill window to go away. I think IB was having data problems this morning. They had a note that the H/L and Volume were not updating this morning. A bulletin said they fixed that problem and about an hour later the back fill started working and will back fill correctly now. If AB has a problem it is really intermittent because I rarely have any trouble and when I did it was IB and not AB. My vote is not AB but IB this time. What a day not to have intraday data!
