I have not had any trouble today but there are some symbols I can not download. I get error 162 which is BEST query errors and it will not back fill about 8 ETFs I was tracking. This is an error on one of their servers. They are supposed to be working on that too. I wonder some times since it has been failing for a month. That error started on 12/5 and more started to fail on 12/11. But the major indices and trin, forex and some futures are working fine.
I am running their latest stand alone release, 880.5 and Java version 1.5.0_14. My AB is 4.90.5 and I am running on PX Home. Make sure your computer clock is set close to actual time. I think they use the CPU clock rather than a time stamp in the data. I noticed the close is never what Scottrade shows or the OED value. I ran into some problems when my clock got way off and I lost data on some symbols and all of it on one. Another thing you can try is displaying an analysis chart in IB. If their chart won't display it is their data feed problem and not the API.
