daytradr & Journalytix Interactive Brokers TWS Integration (and more)

Written by Peter Davies | Jan 9, 2020 7:13:29 PM

We are really happy to announce the release of Jigsaw Trading Version 2.1.0.0 - which now integrates to Interactive Brokers Trader Workstation (version 978.1g or above). This integration is for both daytradr users and users of Journalytix. In addition we've got some other minor improvements.

The video below gives you an overview of the interface as well as some tips on combining IB with different data feeds, the quality of the IB level 1 feed (which is much improved) and the benefits of the Level 2 Full Stock Depth over other feeds. 

Beta Phase

The Interactive Brokers connection is in Beta Mode - so please make sure you test it on a paper account until we leave the beta phase. That is expected to be just a few weeks as we've done exhaustive testing over the past 2 months. There's an email at the end of the video to report any issues. Connection instructions are available if you click here.

Other Changes in This Version

Other changes in this version are:

  1. LTQ Coloring not correct in some cases.
  2. Allow Trading of Earn2Trade Gauntlet accounts from a regular SIM license (no live license required).
  3. Some FX Futures not displaying data.
  4. Memory usage on Rithmic instrument download reduced.

As usual, existing members can get the download from the members page or from the download page in the journalytix application.

Big Thank You 

Thanks for your patience with this, I know a lot of you have been waiting for it as well as the things that are coming next. 

May you all have a profitable New Year.
