Interactive Brokers - Support live trading of stocks and ETFs listed on LSE and IBIS

Open Snowhit3 opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

Expected Behavior

Add possibility to live trade stocks and ETFs listed on LSE and IBIS through Interactive Brokers. Support for backtesting is not in scope. Request similar to https://www.quantconnect.com/forum/discussion/1269/trading-and-back-testing-international-stocks-on-quantconnect/p1

Actual Behavior

It is currently not possible to live trade neither European ETFs nor stocks on Interactive Brokers through QC, although these venues/assets are available on IB

Potential Solution

My understanding so far is that the following is required:

  • update MarketHoursDatabase with European market hours
  • add LSE and IBIS as markets in Markets.cs
  • (?) map LSE and IBIS to European market hours
