Interactive Brokers has a unix java version of Trader Workstation that isn't shown on their info page: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/IB.php I ran it briefly on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS using Oracle Java. I'm running SC under WINE but didn't try to connect to TWS since I can't do anything with the account. (I'm looking forward to an eventual linux version of SC.) Ubuntu Oracle Java Install Instructions: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/09/install-oracle-java-8-in-ubuntu-via-ppa.html Found from these pages: https://launchpad.net/~webupd8team/+archive/ubuntu/java https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java IB TWS Unix Instructions: https://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/index.php?f=674&ns=T If the link changes, it can be found as the regular TWS download option from the main page. *** Use a linux web browser or the windoze version will come up. I didn't see a way to manually switch between the two. The command to run it is long. I recommended putting it into a startup script for ease of use. The IBGateway API is run from the same jar file using a different command that's also long. |
