    Is there a broker that has a c++ api that allows paper trading without the need to open an actual trading account. I am interested in equity trading and options trading only - not fx.

    Thanks,

  2. You can give IB a try. They offer an API – more a TCP IP protocol - which is available for free. You can run this against their demo-account. It doesn’t provide you with ‘real’ quotes, but it is good enough to test your development….
