Do the Scanners Subscriptions work? #139

Closed lucky-lou closed 5 years ago

lucky-lou commented 5 years ago

If so, how? I can't find any examples and reqScannerParameters function doesn't seem to do anything.

nemozny commented 5 years ago

Yes, the example is here https://github.com/pilwon/node-ib/blob/master/examples/all.js If you reqScannerParameters and write it to a file, you will get XML, attached (had to ZIP it). scannerParams.zip

Actually the scanner works for STK, but I can't get it to work for FUT. I raised a ticket to IB, all I am getting is "You cannot combine locations from different regions.", which is a total nonsense.

I just asked for "FUT.US", nothing special. I do have market data subscription at IB.

Did you have any luck with FUT anyone?

nemozny commented 5 years ago

Ok, my bad, it works. You just have to add FUT.US, not just FUT.

instrument: 'FUT.US',
locationCode: 'FUT.US'

You can close this ticket.
