Thanks, I am already using real account.
The problem is that Interactive brokers does not work fine in real time with 
Amibroker. At least, using stocks, what I use.
When you connect, there are several  problems:
1-      The stock's price seems OK, but the date appears one day before today 
(?)
2-      You have to backfill every stock manually. There is the option to 
"backfill ALL RT quote windows symbols", but after downloading 3 or 4 symbols, 
it stops because of "throttle", and freeze during 120 seconds.
3-      Some of the options of the intraday amibroker's menu doesn't work 
apparently (like show 24 hours trading, or filter weekends..)
I think perhaps Interactive brokers won't be the best option to use in real 
time..
What I really need is a way to test from Amibroker, many stocks in real time, 
(probably one minute bars),  to see if I send a limit order to my broker, 
(which will be Interactive broker, although not as data provider)
Which data provider should I use, who could be the best, for testing many 
stocks every minute??
Does anybody test a good provider? Perhaps e-signal?
Thanks a lot
