Interactive Brokers Paper Trading Login

Course Name: Automated Trading with IBridgePy using Interactive Brokers Platform, Section No: 2, Unit No: 4, Unit type: Document

Hello, I created an account on IBridgePy Portal but when I insert the username and passwod of the created account on Interactive Brokers for Paper Trading login, that does not work. Do you know what may be the issue?

Hi Manuel,



IBridgePy and Interactive Brokers are two different things, and hence, the same account credentials won't work. You need to create a separate account with the Interactive Brokers. You can refer to this link to know more about IB account creation. However, please do due diligence about the costs involved and other factors like data availability etc. before registering with any broker.



Thanks,

Akshay
