IB New Download

[rtj4201]

I got a message from Interactive Brokerage. Version 892.7 will be desupported on 20091023. Minimum Version supported is 893.0.

What do I do to coordinate with Ninja Trader?

Hello rtj4201,

Thank you for your post.

With the current release of NinjaTrader (6.5.1000.13), you will need to use TWS version 895.3.
Please do not upgrade TWS to any later versions as this can cause various issues.

If you need to download a copy of TWS 895.3, you can find it at the following link: http://www.ninjatrader.com/webnew/su...ivebrokers.htm

Please let me know if you have any additional questions.

I am currently using 6.5.1000.12 [live]. Do I need to upgrade NT?

Hello rtj4201,

Thank you for your reply.

Yes, please upgrade to the current version of NinjaTrader via the following link, then upgrade your TWS installation as well: http://www.ninjatrader.com/webnew/download_download.htm

I have just opened an account with IB and I am using Build 898.3, will this work with the current version of NinjaTrader?

Should I download from

or

Many thanks

No, please use the recommended TWS 895.3 as per Kyle's post, thanks.

[samuelhogg]

Many thanks.

I downloaded the correct version now from http://www.ninjatrader.com/webnew/su...ivebrokers.htm.

When I try and set up my IB account information in NinjaTrader it only gives me options for Barchart.com, esignal, GAIN, IQ Feed, Open Tick and Yahoo.

Please advise

No, please use the recommended TWS 895.3 as per Kyle's post, thanks.

samuelhogg, please pm me the key you entered under Help > License Key. Also ensure your firewall settings allow NinjaTrader to access www.ninjatrader.com and www.ninjatrader-support2.com for it's needed license server checks.

Hi,

Thats what it was, I was using Ninjatrader with the key that I received when I used Gain. Got a new key from your site and now all ok.

Many thanks for help

Will I be able to use my IB paper trading account with Ninjatrader?

Samuel

[NinjaTrader_Bertrand]

Yes, you can connect also to your IB Paper trading account for simtrading and realtime data - however to place orders to it, you would need to use a live license key instead of the Sim one you have now.

How do people get round that IB TWS automatically closes down at night?

Anyone tried connecting using FIX CTCI connections to IB?

Hello samuelhogg,

Thank you for your reply.

1.) We have no official recommendations. Perhaps another forum user could be of assistance with this.

2.) This is not supported. IB connections must be established via the method described at the following link: http://www.ninjatrader.com/webnew/su...ivebrokers.htm

[samuelhogg]

Anyone tried this app? http://twsstart.free.fr/ Or any other similar app?
