Private Readonly onPlaces new order. This method does use the order id as returned by getNextValidOrderId() method and returns it as a result. If you want to send multiple orders, consider using placeOrder method instead and increase the order id manually for each new order, avoiding the overhead of calling getNextValidOrderId() for each.
[[getNextValidOrderId]]
Places or modifies an order.
The order's unique identifier. Use a sequential id starting with the id received at the nextValidId method. If a new order is placed with an order ID less than or equal to the order ID of a previous order an error will occur.
The order's [[Contract]].
The [[Order]] object.
Switches data type returned from reqMktData request to "frozen", "delayed" or "delayed-frozen" market data. Requires TWS/IBG v963+.
By default only real-time [[MarketDataType.REALTIME]] market data is enabled.
The API can receive frozen market data from Trader Workstation. Frozen market data is the last data recorded in our system. During normal trading hours, the API receives real-time market data. Invoking this function with argument [[MarketDataType.FROZEN]] requests a switch to frozen data immediately or after the close. When the market reopens, the market data type will automatically switch back to real time if available.
The requested market data type.
Generated using TypeDoc
Next-gen Typescript implementation of the Interactive Brokers TWS (or IB Gateway) API.
If you prefer to stay as close as possible to the official TWS API interfaces and functionality, use [[IBApi]].
If you prefer to use an API that provides some more convenience functions, such as auto-reconnect or RxJS Observables that stay functional during re-connect, use [[IBApiNext]].
[[IBApiNext]] does return RxJS Observables on most of the functions. The first subscriber will send the request to TWS, while the last un-subscriber will cancel it. Any subscriber in between will get a replay of the latest received value(s). This is also the case if you call same function with same arguments multiple times ([[IBApiNext]] will make sure that a similar subscription is not requested multiple times from TWS, but it will become a new observers to the existing subscription). In case of an error, a re-subscribe will send the TWS request again (it is fully compatible to RxJS operators, e.g. retry or retryWhen).
Note that connection errors are not reported to the returned Observables as returned by get-functions, but they will simply stop emitting values until TWS connection is re-established. Use [[IBApiNext.connectState]] for observing the connection state.
