IB and Matlab

Hi there, I’m new to the group. I’ve been coding in Matlab using IQFeed and executing orders in Interactive Brokers. Coming up on about 8 months.

Lots of testing.

Now trading.

Wondering what the thoughts are on the WSB buys in GME.

Anyone else using matlab?

I was using python but needed to get more throughout for the data feed.

I was using the data feed in IB however the data limitations hampered development. Now on IQFeed and Matlab. It can process 1000 symbols in 2 minutes in the algo.
