get_bars() not working - Githubissues

spitzbubchen commented 3 years ago

This is very nice work! I tried most of the functions and they work well, however, when I run the get_bars() example I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test.py", line 30, in <module>
    bars = ib.get_bars("AAPL", period="1w", bar="1d")
  File "/home/rod/Projects/tradingview/ibapi.py", line 252, in get_bars
    return response.json()
  File "/home/rod/Projects/tradingview/venv/lib/python3.8/site-packages/requests/models.py", line 910, in json

Thanks! It's interesting only one of the functions is not working. It looks like you are getting an empty response from the server. What do you get when you run the following at the shell terminal? curl -X GET "https://localhost:5000/v1/api/iserver/marketdata/history?conid=265598" -k Here conid=265598 implies AAPL.

It's working now. It seems the issue was that I had another IBKR session open that was blocking historical tick requests. I'll close the issue.
