IBPlugin now free

IBPlugin is now freely available, but not as open source, as the sources are still used in numerous projects.

IBPlugin can only be used under Windows. It is a general plugin that provides large parts of the InteractiveBrokers API quite comfortably.

 

IBPlugin is now license-free for users. It can be downloaded here.

 

Questions will be answered on our Discord Channel ibplugin.

 

In these playlists you will find videos on how to use IBPlugin in Multicharts (TradeStation) and MetaTrader.

If you need more help, please buy support.

Recommended TWS Version for trade-commander.com products

Unlike recommended in a prior post, it is best practise to stick always
with InteractiveBrokers time tested version (download lower right “TWS Offline-Version”). Currently this is version 981.xx.

Some users report problems using newer TWS like the version above.
For instance, the MTIB Order Copier never completes connection.

If you have this problem, go to API settings in TWS / Gateway and
follow this procedure:
– Uncheck “Allow connections…”.
– Reconnect trade-commander.com software with TWS / Gateway
– When asked to accept connection from (name)/ip, note the IP
then create a Trusted  IP and just put IP (name excluded) in.
– Save
– When the trade-commander.com software conencts next time, it should
work without the need to confirm connection.
