IB+Schwab

[Antares66]

Hello,
i am currently trading in my IB Account and have also an account at Schwab. Because of slow chart loading with IB i´m considering to use the Schwab data feed for charting and executing the trades on IB (connection to both simultaneously). I noticed that this would be possible with the Pro Edition. Has anyone experience with such a solution?
I could also use dxfeed but top of book could be unsufficicent and consolitated tape is pretty expensive.

I know what you are talking about. I have one IB instrument that loads slowly. I presume you are running a Windows OS. I would be curious to see how the same configuration performs on Linux. I agree, DX feed pretty pricey. Investigate your network interface cards as well for performance. It sounds like you found the best solution for now.
