Simple automated trading software for IB?

S

Hello all -

I'm a newer trader using IB and eSignal.

Does anyone have a recommendation for an easy software that will let me prepare a group of trades with brackets before the day begins?

I know the execution prices. I would like to prepare 10-20 trades with profit/stop brackets I could execute repeatedly through the day.

I could actually send the trades manually, and more than once in order to build positions. I'm just looking for something where I could prepare my trades ahead of time and easily send to IB.

Thanks - the members of this website are an incredible resource.

Take a look at the Excel DDE info in the TWS user guide on the IB website. It sounds like just what you are looking for.
 
ButtonTrader is a nice tool, and would probably do the trick for you once you climb it's learning curve.
