        Quickfix is an implementation of the FIX protocol. The problem with this being that FIX is a protocol but integration with each and every FIX provider requires specific tailoring (and a lot more work than integrating an HTTP stream)

        Interactive Brokers offers FIX ... but not to you ... (actually the traffic running between TWS and the server is tagged as FIX by network analyzers)

        A FIX implementation would require a funded development project. Your best bet is contacting a professional FIX integrator.
