IBTrader

IBTrader is live trading agent for Interactive Brokers. IB's API is queue-based asynchronous and is difficult to use for general purpose trading algorithm. We provide an easier abstraction that is similar to Quantopian's API.

API

These functions a implemented for you. Tu buy/sell, simply send target %, other types order can be easily implemented based on this api.

# agent/base_algo.py

class BaseAlgorithm:
  def order_target_percent(self, symbol, percent:float, limit):
    pass
  def run_on_trading_day(self, func):
    pass
  def updatePosition(self):
    pass
  def updateAccountSummary(self):
    pass
