Placing Orders using TWS Python API

In this lesson we discuss how orders can be placed, monitored, modified, and cancelled from the TWS API. To demonstrate the essential components necessary to place an order, a simple Python program is introduced which places an AAPL order to a paper account, and then prints order status messages to the console. Important topics associated with placing and monitoring orders from the API, including the master client ID, and the API maximum message rate are introduced.

Is there any callback when an order is updated or deleted? How do I know when an order is updated or deleted?

Hey great video!
How can I ensure that my code always runs, even when my PC is off or the internet connection is lost? For instance, when I run the code in PyCharm with Interactive Brokers Workstation open, the connection works fine. However, if the PC is turned off or there's no internet, the connection is disrupted. Is it possible to run my code in the cloud, or do you have any other good ideas on how I can keep my code running 24/7?
