Help with sending orders from Tradestation to IB

  1. Hello everyone, I'm trying to figure out how to send orders from my strategies in Tradestation to my IB account. Tradestation doesn't have forex so that's why it's needed.

    I'm aware of the NinjaTrader API method but I don't have a paid Ninjatrader account so I can't use that method. Is anyone using or does anyone know a different way? Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks.

    I end up purchasing a program called MetaOrder RT. It only works with TS 9.5 and lower, but it was tested live. It works.

  5. Hey thanks for the response.... I looked into MetaOrderRT and spent a whole week working with it. One big problem for me though.... you have to run Tradestation in Sim Mode for it to work. That's a dealbreaker because I also run strategies in Tradestation using their brokerage. Very frustrating.... I probably put twenty hours in getting it to work. But really appreciate the suggestion. It's the first thing that almost worked for me!
