Implement a solution to automate a trading strategy in Interactive Brokers' TWS Platform ([login to view URL])
Python implementation would be preferred. Connection should be implemented using IB's API.
It's an Equities Pairs Trading strategy. The project will include the following requirements:
- Collecting live and historical prices from TWS
- Perform calculations using collected prices in order to detect when a trade should be entered or exited
- Send orders to IB using the API. We should first check if Short is available and then be able to use different execution methodologies for both legs
- Store execution details for trades and always keep track of open and closed positions
Your project is very similar to this one:
