I am running E-Signal, going to use IB as my Broker. I have NT6, and I need to connect to IB TWS. From looking through these threads, I assume that I have TWS up and running, and then I use NT6 to open a connection to IB. Orders are then routed from NT to IB, and filled in TWS. Is that correct?
How do users get around the fact that TWS shuts down nightly, does the connection automatically reconnect? From the threads I gather this does not happen.
Does anyone have any experience with running E-Sig->NT->IB in an automated manner such that all you need to do prior the trading day is to ensure Internet Connectivity is up and running. I currently use E-Sig->Dynaorder->TWS and I have every aspect automated so that it is hands off from Sunday night through Friday night, and I am looking to replicate the same functionality with NT.
If there is a support page that outlines all of the steps to setting NT up with IB, I would help. I have looked, but have not found anything which clearly explains this.
Thanks to anyone who can help me out with this.
Regards,
Thomas.
