Possible to send manual Tradestation orders to MC/IB?

K

KeLo

Is it possible to somehow send manual orders from Tradestation to IB or to IB via MultiCharts ? *

And if I purchased a DLL, how safe would that be?

I will probably hire it done, but I need to nail down exactly how it needs to be done first. Any thoughts... or is it not possible?

* I wish to diversify my broker risk plus IB comm. is cheaper than TS.

The Question is why use Tradestation at all?
IB/MC -- works fine
IB/Ninja -- works fine
IB/TWS -- works fine
IB/anything is infinitely better than Tradestation

Because TradeStation with Easy Language is still one of the easiest way for someone to code up a strategy, with the exception of MultiCharts with Easy Language. However, TradeStation is a one stop shop unlike MC, with integrated data & execution.

Reliable>Easy ...
As a Broker Tradestation is neither.
But to each his own... it's your money...

The newer ObjectOrientedEasyLanguage (OOEL) at TS is pretty nifty. It's too bad we can't use the platform with other brokers.

I think NT can only be used with NT broker now BTW.

If I can't duplicate my orders at the 2 brokers, I will probably shift more of my assets to IB for the coming year and use the legacy EL at MC. Thanks for your input.
