Using NinjaTrader on Interactive Brokers

[bc24fl]

https://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt8/?historical_data_manager.htm

I was wondering if there is documentation related to what IB supports and does not support on NinjaTrader? I read the link above but are there other specifics that do not work on Ninja? For example, on TD Ameritrade moving your orders like (stop losses, profit targets) don't work as expected. Instead it cancels the order and recreates them.

Thanks,

Hello,

Thanks for posting.

Below is a link to what data is and is not supported via the API connection to IB within NinjaTrader:

https://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt8/data_by_provider.htm

Certain account types with IB might need special configuration or operate differently in NT as well.

Please let us know if you have any other questions.

My apologies, I did read that link. Is there anything else related to interactive brokers i should be aware of? Do all of ninjatrader features work correctly on IB?

Hello,

All NT operations should work with IB accounts without issue on NinjaTrader's end. As stated, some account types such as linked accounts of master/sub accounts may have unique functionality though.
Is there a certain feature or behavior you are looking for clarification on?

Just wanted to know what features work and what doesn't so i can make an informed decision before moving an account to IB.

Hello,
If linking to a normal individual account at IB, there shouldn't be any restrictions/issues other than the data limitations via their API listed in the previously supplied link.


Please let us know if I may assist further.
