Hi Richard.?

Never really paid attention to IBC although have seen it mentioned in posts. Went on your GitHub link and from what I gather it is for logging in / maintaining the login around restarts etc.?

It is not meant to be a replacement for IB Api right. More of augmentation to it.?

Thanks for all you do.?

IBController is a defunct project that is no longer maintained.

IBC is fully maintained (by me as it happens) and works with every version of TWS/Gateway (a new release is imminent to cope with a change by IBKR in the installation location for the macOS version of TWS/Gateway 981.2r).

I don't know why the current owner of the old IBController project persists in not marking it as defunct: it is in no-one's interest to leave it in its current state.

I think you should look at IBController -?

Official from IBRK.

Or check a docker image like this -?

I took the latter and adapted for me.

I also managed to hack my way into running IB gateway on Google Colab to experiment.
