Expand IB to Support CFD Products

Open jaredbroad opened this issue 1 year ago • 5 comments

Expected Behavior

LEAN supports a CFD brokerage.

Actual Behavior

With OANDA moving European clients to OANDA TWS; and that entity not supporting API's, they can no longer use LEAN.

Potential Solution

Add another broker or expand IB support to handle CFDs.

Would love to see this! Europeans can't trade US ETFs because of tax reasons. So no SPY, QQQ, etc. IB offers them and other ETFs/stocks as CFD which is the only way to trade them.
