IB Connection status #27

Open vinceyap88 opened 7 years ago

vinceyap88 commented 7 years ago

There are no status return for InteractiveBrokersClientInterface.connect() method. I have noticed that sometime it will fail to connect the IB. In this case, it is good to have this connect() method to return the status.

Agreed, the connect method could either return a true/false boolean status, or the method could throw an exception if it was unsuccessful in connecting.
