      Hi,

      I understand CapTrader as a kind of local equivalent of Interactive Brokers in Germany.

      Does anybody know by chance whether the Backtrader connectivity to Interactive Brokers would work also with CapTrader?

      Thanks in advance!

        CapTrader is only what's commonly known as Introducing Broker or White Label/Branding for Interactive Brokers.

        For all intent and purposes it is: Interactive Brokers

        (The platform is the same even if the title bar says CapTrader and you send your money to the accounts of Interactive Brokers in Frankfurt. Check: Einzahlung and unless I am very wrong, you sign your contract with Interactive Brokers)

        It is done following this scheme: https://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/index.php?f=14322

        If you believe you can get a decent number of customers to sign up, you can do it yourself. Another example is: https://www.lynxbroker.de/handelsplattform/trader-workstation/ (check the pictures ... they will be familiar)

        There are some others.
