TWS inicio

Hello:
What's the point of configuring autostart in interactive brokers ninja (TWS) if you don't fill in the fields?

Hello Gibranes,

Could it be you connect to a IB paper account? Unfortunately this does not work for IB paper accounts.

Did you select the proper .exe file for the 'Auto logon path' setting?

Make sure you have TWS/Gateway version 10.23.2a. If not, you can download and install it from the IB connection guide. You can find it under 'Requirements'.


Please the information below from the IB connection guide.

Auto logon: Check this option in order for NinjaTrader to automatically start and enter your credentials to log into your account. Selecting this check box will enable the “Auto logon path” property which is used to tell NinjaTrader where your TWS/Gateway version is located. Leave unchecked if you wish to manually start and login to TWS/Gateway before using your connection

Important: You are required to use the API version listed on this page for this feature to work properly


Auto logon path: Only used if “Auto logon” is enabled. Not compatible with paper accounts. Choose the file location of your TWS/Gateway installation (your installation may vary depending on your setup)

TWS: C:\Jts\1023\tws.exe, etc.
IBGateway: C:\Jts\ibgateway\1023\ibgateway.exe

It is a live account and does not fill out the fields.
I use a script in c# and it opens ninja and TWS without filling in both fields each time.

I'm not a programmer myself, so I will not be able to assist in this regard. Can you please create new forum thread under NinjaTrader Desktop - General Development.
