Anyone use JAVA to develop there automated trading systems?

For example for a Buy Limit order I have to make the following API calls:

- https://localhost:5000/v1/portal/iserver/account/${ACCOUNT_ID}/order (normally it will return a reply_id)
- https://localhost:5000/v1/portal/iserver/reply/${replyID} (Each time will return a different reply ID). Can be 1, 2 sometimes 3 times, for example when you place a limit order that is far from the Limit Price.

I will retry with real orders later to see real-world examples, but I think I'll move forward with the Java Api, since it seems more robust, and more people are using it.

Is it possible to retrieve the current bid/asks with a websocket in Java?

 

I'm not sure what this is. I have not seen those kind of URLs before.

 

Yeah, they are the urls from their Rest API:
https://interactivebrokers.com/api/...s/~1iserver~1account~1{accountId}~1order/post

 

I have never used IB's Rest API, so I can't comment on it. I don't know how it performs.

 

I'm looking to use this WS library for a project I'm about to start on....

 

it is not standard library, no much trust or not convenient enough to use
