  • EFS Automated Trading Question

    Can I program systems using EFS in esignal which can be auto-traded in unattended fashion?

    I am using another platform that can but it doesn't not have the number of different brokers options that esignal has.

    The last mention of this I see is in the forums is the sticky dated march 2011 and at that time it was advised not to trade unattended or so I understood.

    Thanks for any help you might provide.

    Best,

    Ed

    No, it can't be done through their API. EFS does not provide return order and execution statuses. There is no ETA on such a capability.

      For example (API) NinjaTrader? Then, with NinjaTrader + eSignal + IB can be fully automated trading?
      Thanks for answer.

        Sure. Any method where you reduce the eSignal part to a signal generator with the execution engine exterior so you can get at the order status and execution information should work fine.
