read-only API mode
I set my IB API settings to be in read-only mode and tried the "Writing your Blotter" script on https://qtpylib.io/docs/latest/blotter.html. TWS pops up a message that "an API client is attempting to send a request that needs API write access."
Is there way to use qtpylib w/IB API set in read-only mode? I would like to get historical and real-time market data and not execute orders via qtpylib.
