Requesting votes. About trade stock cfd´s

[pekex]

In my first post I explain the benefits of CFD'S.
Most relevant if you are a stock trader, is that you don't are restricted under PDT rule of USA stock market.
Trading through Ninjatrader with a serious stock broker as Interactive Brokers give us a big edge against competitors.
I beg from here to the Ninjatrader programming department to listen ours votes please...
Thank you so much.

How are CFDs taxed in the US ??

Alfred , the NinjaTrader forums are for technical support only. Please reach out to your broker/prospective broker to learn more about taxes, fees, and other account-related items.

Please add my vote. Thanks!

I wanted to buy NT8 in order to trade stock CFD's via IB.
I was slightly shocked yesterday when I downloaded NT8 for a trial and I couldn't find how to trade those instruments.
I also cant find an option to import a CFD sybol list for the thousands of CFD's supported by IB.
Hopefully NT will provide updated instrument lists for the different cytegories of IB supported CFD's.

Patrick G. as you see there are a lot of users interested in this feature. Could you tell us if programming department will finally take into account our needs?
Thanks,

Hi Patrick good morning. Is it already possible to trade Stocks CFDs using InteractiveBrokers? Or only forex.com?

Why? Is there any perspective to implement CFD for interactive brokers?

I am testing Ninjatrader and I only trade Stocks CFDs at InteractiveBrokers.

Kind regards,

Tulio.

It is not possible to trade stock CFDs with Interactive Brokers due to mapping limitations. That feature is still being tracked.

[pekex]

Please try to find a solution to "mapping limitations". It is a feature that many customers have been demanding for some time. Keep that in mind please.

[NinjaTrader_PatrickG]

To put it simply, there is not an easy way to differentiate the stock from the CFD using the current method of requesting data from Interactive Brokers, The Development Team is aware of this limitation and is tracking demand via a feature request SFT-319.

[pekex]

Certainly there is only a single market data for both stocks and CFD´S. If you click on the instrument ticker " / information about financial instrument / description" you will see the following details (screenshot attached). If you look into the red circle, all CFD´S tickers are the same of the underlying stock but with the "n" letter followed by the name of the ticker.
This is an idea that I launch to the developers team in case it could be helpful. I´m sure that you finally find the solution. Thanks so much.
