IB Live Data Feed: differences between resampled data and backfilled data

  • B

    Hi all,

    I'm doing some tests with backtrader + IB + live data feeds and I'm getting some differences between resampled data and backfilled data.

    Initially my goal is simple: A log with exactly the same bars/data than the TWS chart shows.

    Given the following code:

    class Test(bt.Strategy):

    ######################
    #
    ######################
    def notify_data(self, data, status, * args, ** kwargs):
        print('*' * 5, 'DATA NOTIF:', data._getstatusname(status), * args)

        now = datetime.datetime.now()
        print('%s:  %s' % (
              now.strftime(dtfmt), txt))

    def next (self, frompre=False):

        self.log("Frompre: %d data0 %s open %f high %f low %f close %f vol %d" %
                 (frompre,
                 self.data0.datetime.datetime(0).strftime(dtfmt),
                 self.data0.open[0],

    Problems detected:

    1.- Some bars are different. e.g: the bar with 211X volume

    • resampled data -> close 164.32 vol 2116
    • backfilled data -> close 164.33 vol 2114

    2.- Different timestamps, e.g: the bar with volume 246:

    • resampled data time-> 07:53
    • backfilled data time -> 07:52

    I've tried increasing the qcheck up-to 20 without success

    Thanks in advance.

    I've tried increasing the qcheck up-to 20 without success

    You should decrease the qcheck parameter for more checks per second, which it's probably your intention (qcheck=0.5, the default, forces the system to wake-up every 0.5 seconds to do resampling clean-up for example, which in the absence of negotiation will allow the resampler to spit out bars by checking the real-time clock)

    Without claiming that backtrader is perfect and its resampling is perfect and ... and ... the expectation that the backfilled data and the real-time resampled data will be equal is too much to expect. Add to the equation that Interactive Brokers dismisses itself as a data provider and has disclaimers about the data.

    Reasons:

    • Ticks may be missed
    • Ticks may come in too late and be discarded (there is a parameter to control it and add them to the next resampled bar)
    • The resampler has to deliver in real-time using the real-time clock and cannot wait for ticks to show up if they are delayed. At 2017-06-16T07:57:00 it has to give you a bar, but it may not have all information from Interactive Brokers
    • The 4 times a second snapshots are not guaranteed to contain exact information.

    Some of this problems can be alleviated by switching to Real-Time Bars for which Interactive Brokers guarantees consolidated information (check the rtbar parameter in Docs - Interactive Brokers. But this is not available for all products.

    You can also face the following problem:

    • Backfill today and get bars with information X
    • Backfill tomorrow and get bars with information Y (slight changes to X), because some information has been consolidated.

    @borodiliz said in IB Live Data Feed: differences between resampled data and backfilled data:

    2.- Different timestamps, e.g: the bar with volume 246:

    resampled data time-> 07:53
    backfilled data time -> 07:52

    This is because IB is moving the data pointer to the beginning of the minute rather than to the end. It's just a convention.

    Thanks for your quick reply @backtrader

    You can't claim backtrader is perfect, but I can claim backtrader is ... awesome!

    I can understand the complexity using tickString, so let's go with RealTimeBars data:

    Because I do not want bars as be delivered as much in real-time as possible and I perfer to "wait" a while I've set the following (qcheck=2 , timeoffset=True and rtbar=True):

        ibstore = bt.stores.IBStore(

                                notifyall=args.notifyall, _debug=args.debug)

    cerebro.setbroker(ibstore.getbroker())

    My conclusion: First rtbar is not taken into account

    After checking ibdata.py source code and debug data I think the problem arises when datetime for a rtbar is equal to the just emitted resampled bar. I seems those minor changes solves the problem.

    Test again:
