I will build ibkr trading bot using interactive brokers API
Python Developer Trading Bots Automation Engineer
Informazioni su questo servizio
Most off-the-shelf bots fail because they can't handle real market conditions like slippage, websocket drops, or bad order fills.
Im a Python developer specializing in the IBKR API (ib_async, ib_insync, TWS, and Web API). I build custom, reliable automation tailored specifically to your exact trading strategyno hardcoded junk, no template bots.
What I actually build for clients:
- Custom indicator strategies (EMA, RSI, ATR, VWAP, or your own logic)
- TradingView webhook bridges to IBKR
- Smart execution (Bracket orders, Trailing stops, OCA orders)
- Risk management (Max daily loss limits, dynamic position sizing, account kill-switches)
- Telegram integrations (trade alerts or manual approve/reject triggers)
- Background deployment on Linux/Windows VPS so it runs 24/7 without your laptop staying open
How we do this:
Every strategy is different. Drop me a message before ordering with your entry/exit rules and indicators. I'll tell you honestly if the IBKR API supports it, how long it'll take, and which package fits best.
Once built, we test everything on paper trading first to make sure the logic is bulletproof before you take it live.

FAQ
Do I need to keep Trader Workstation (TWS) or IB Gateway running for the bot to execute trades?
Yes. The IBKR API requires either TWS or IB Gateway open as a local connection bridge. To keep your bot running 24/7 without keeping your personal laptop on, I can deploy the script alongside headless IB Gateway on a cloud VPS (Linux/Windows).
How do we test the strategy to ensure my money is safe before going live?
We test every build on your IBKR Paper Trading account first. This lets us verify order execution, stop-loss triggers, and strategy rules using real-time market data without risking actual capital. We only move to live trading once you confirm the paper results are 100% accurate.
Can you connect my TradingView indicator or alerts to IBKR?
Yes. I can build a Python webhook receiver (using FastAPI) that catches JSON alert signals directly from TradingView and translates them into instant buy/sell orders, bracket legs, or position adjustments inside your IBKR account.
What asset classes and instruments does the bot support?
The code can interact with any instrument enabled on your IBKR account—including Stocks, Options, Futures, Forex, and ETFs. Just make sure you have the required market data subscriptions active in your IBKR portal for real-time streaming.
What happens if my internet disconnects or IBKR drops the socket connection?
The script includes built-in auto-reconnection logic and heartbeat checks. If IBKR drops the connection or resets daily at server restart, the bot automatically reconnects, re-subscribes to market streams, and checks curren
