Hello, I tried to follow this video (https://stocksharp.com/forum/10058/Lesson-1-The-first-connection-creating/), I did exactly every step like the video but the securities never showed up, I'm uploading a video for you to see.

Thanks



Thanks:

Thank you for your question.

IB connection does not provide automatic instruments downloading. In that case, from the app, you need to send searching requests via Connector.LookupSecurities. All found instruments will be provided via Connector.NewSecurity or Connector.LookupSecuritiyFinished events.

On our environment, the lesson shows AAPL instruments

Can you provide the link from where you have downloaded the materials?

PS We updated your support plus 1 week for the answer days reason.

Please the following links (any, not all)

1) https://stocksharp.com/f...kSharp-training-course/ (edu materials)
2) https://stocksharp.com/products/download/ (Night build link) (public samples only)

Currently, the official release contains 4.4.16 version. This version is out of date and we recommend use 4.4.17 (many fixes and improvements).

1) Did you unblock the archive before unzip?
2) Please try to add as reference to the project StockSharp.InteractiveBrokers.dll.

I am sorry but I cannot understand from where you downloaded the code on your video. Please use this direct link https://stocksharp.com/f...09596/Lesson_4_4_17_7z/ There code missed 2 points:

1) It does not have a reference on StockSharp.Configuration.Adapters - the reason why you do not any connectors on Settings window.
2) It does not have a lookup securities code on a connected event as I mentioned above: _connector.LookupSecurities(new Security() { Code = "AAPL" });

Please download materials from the link I've provided and try to run Lessons\lesson_01(simple_terminal)\01_Connect_and_get_security project.
