Interactive Brokers integration #234

Closed cjdsellers closed 2 years ago

cjdsellers commented 3 years ago

Scaffolding for an Interactive Brokers integration leveraging the ib_insync library has been added.

The vision is to initially support futures trading.

@cjdsellers I want to help with this, but the part that makes it difficult is not knowing how we expect it to work. I've been toying with the current work in progress adapters to try and learn.

cjdsellers commented 2 years ago

I agree, it could be much clearer how to implement an adapter. @limx0 has improved this situation with the templates PR.

As the general API becomes more stable I will improve the documentation further and write some more code examples there too. Docs is actually a larger project currently underway moving to MD over RST, how they are 'built'/deployed and where.

cjdsellers commented 2 years ago

This integration has been completed and tested to a basic level, closing this in favor of more specific issues. Many thanks to @limx0 for making this happen! :pray:
