TWS API python

[remroc]

Hello DRo,

Do you plan to use TWS API python for backtrader as Interactive Brokers as released their own python API ?

Thanks for letting (all us) know. Nothing that was being tracked, but it was for sure due time.

Will for sure be looked into.

The native Interactive Brokers TWS Python API uses type annotations which is not supported in Python 2.7.

Maybe something to consider for backtrader 2

Indeed, TWS API is on python 3. What's the roadmap for backtrader 2 ?

Thanks for your answer...

Cheers,
