Thanks. As far as attempting to automate access to stock option data from IB, I'm considering a quasi-workaround of requesting a list of all OPT contract symbols from IB API per-underlying, writing to a basic text file (csv or symbollist), then using sc.OpenFile() and requesting data for each, then sending orders when conditions met. Obviously this would seem redundant when I could just do everything directly through IB API, but I'd like to know if you see this idea as a sound one, or if there are any pitfalls?
