IB feed vs eSignal feed

[amerpsy]

Hi everyone,

I was using IB datafeed on Ensign software and there was many inconsistency with their data. In view of that, i switched to esignal.

Can anyone enlighten me what is the real difference between IB datafeed and eSignal? How is the data handling and dispatching different and why is there always inconsistency between both?

Thanks!~

eSignal provides Tick-by-tick streaming real-time data, while IB's data feed is a 0.7 second snapshot. The differences can be quite significant as you've noticed, especially on fast moving issues.

Did that answer your question?
