Honestly one of the simplest intro to IB API in python there is on youtube. Most people do not explain the difference and role of EWrapper and EClient. Good stuff thanks !

Well explained. I finally understand how the run method works and why I need to use it. Thanks!!!

I assume this requires an IB account right? But a TD API could be used the same way I assume? Just to collect the live feed and then place orders based on our algo signals? Does IB offer faster execution speeds? Sorry, learning quant here

Great vid..Can I ask what python package you are using here?

[shadyalassal]

Can I use the same code with TWS API instead of Gateway API from IB?

[TheFedosso]

Can you make a video about kalman filter and random forest?
