Interactive Brokers C# API

Interactive Brokers provides a great API for programmatic trading, but they do not offer a native C# version. I have ported their java socket interface to C#, and am maintaining two versions, one which corresponds to Interactive Broker’s release API, and one which corresponds to Interactive Broker’s beta API. I have also incorporated inline documentation into the library, and am using Microsoft Sandcastle with DocProject to translate the inline documentation into a website and help files available below.

• Version 9.5.0.10 Library – May 4, 2008 – Corresponds to IB API 9.51

Stock Viewer

I wrote this utility to allow for simple downloading of intraday stock data from opentick. The charting supports raw ticks as well as 1/5/10/15/30/60 minute bars.

It is released only in its C# source form, and is targeted at developers who are exploring historical patterns.
