For IB Provider customers. Give a thumbs up if you want it!
The snapshot has Market Cap, Outstanding and Total Shares, and a lot more.

It's only been 2 hours, not everyone is glued to this forum :)
Okay, I'll go get a life.

@Cone: Sorry, we were working to make money for Wealthlab and trading! :-)
@Cone: Could you please explain us how we could get the market cap of IB?
My idea is to simulate an ETF by rebalancing it by stocks. It has a huge tax advantage (at least in Germany). Here you pay as company for wins on stocks only 1,5%, and about 30% on ETFs. So it would be very nice, if Wealthlab could simulate an ETF like SPY.
Additionally we could create own ETFs like with only 10 stocks instead the 500 of S&P 500 etc...

Interesting. In Build 63, it will be like this:
CODE:
using WealthLab.Backtest; using WealthLab.Core; using WealthLab.Data; using System.Linq; namespace WealthScript124 { public class IBRatio : UserStrategyBase { public override void Initialize(BarHistory bars) { string ratio = "MKTCAP"; double mktcap = bars.EventDataPoints.LastOrDefault(eventData => eventData.Name == ratio)?.Value ?? 0; DrawHeaderText($"{ratio} {mktcap:N2} (millions)", WLColor.NeonGreen, 14); } public override void Execute(BarHistory bars, int idx) { } } }
It does not work, I think he tries to get the information from the data source WealthLab and not InteractiveBrokers. There is no way in the UX to force him, to read it from IB:
You're trying to get blood from a turnip. The Wealth-Data event provider (not a subject of this thread) only has Dividend and Split events. And these events are only available in the BarHistory if you check the Provider.

Back to MKTCAP. I said, "In Build 63, it will be like this"
- that means, "when IB Provider Build 63 is available." When it is, you'll be able to select the IB Event Provider, which will look like this (in the future) -

Interactive Brokers does not appear in the "Event Providers" tab.
Only in the tabs "Historical Providers" and "Streaming Providers":

Correct.
And it will not appear for you until Build 63 is available.

does this have historical marketcap or only current?
It's a snapshot (but will be historical in the future).
The only history available are quarterly Revenue and EPS.
