Introduction
============

The goal of the IB-insync library is to make working with the
`Trader Workstation API <http://interactivebrokers.github.io/tws-api/>`_
from Interactive Brokers as easy as possible.

The main features are:

* An easy to use linear style of programming;
* An `IB component <https://ib-insync.readthedocs.io/api.html#module-ib_insync.ib>`_
  that automatically keeps in sync with the TWS or IB Gateway application;
* A fully asynchonous framework based on
  `asyncio <https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio.html>`_
  and
  `eventkit <https://github.com/erdewit/eventkit>`_
  for advanced users;
* Interactive operation with live data in Jupyter notebooks.

Be sure to take a look at the
`notebooks <https://ib-insync.readthedocs.io/notebooks.html>`_,
the `recipes <https://ib-insync.readthedocs.io/recipes.html>`_
and the `API docs <https://ib-insync.readthedocs.io/api.html>`_.


Installation
------------

::

    pip3 install -U ib_insync

On some systems ``pip`` should be used instead of ``pip3``.

To install for a single user, add ``--user`` to the command.

Requirements:

* Python 3.6 or higher;
* A running TWS or IB Gateway application (version 972 or higher).
  Make sure the
  `API port is enabled <https://interactivebrokers.github.io/tws-api/initial_setup.html>`_
  and 'Download open orders on connection' is checked.

The ibapi package from IB is not needed.

Example
-------

This is a complete script to download historical data:

.. code-block:: python

    from ib_insync import *
    # util.startLoop()  # uncomment this line when in a notebook

    ib = IB()
    ib.connect('127.0.0.1', 7497, clientId=1)

    contract = Forex('EURUSD')
    bars = ib.reqHistoricalData(contract, endDateTime='', durationStr='30 D',
            barSizeSetting='1 hour', whatToShow='MIDPOINT', useRTH=True)

    # convert to pandas dataframe:
    df = util.df(bars)
    print(df[['date', 'open', 'high', 'low', 'close']])

Output::

                       date      open      high       low     close
