To help address the issues Akira is experiencing with Interactive Brokers (IB) connectivity in QuantConnect, here are some steps and code snippets that can be implemented in the algorithm to handle and log brokerage messages, disconnections, and reconnections:
Implementing Brokerage Event Handlers
Configuration and Testing
Ensure Correct Configuration: Verify that your algorithm is correctly configured for Interactive Brokers. This includes setting the correct brokerage model and account type.
Testing in a Controlled Environment: Run your algorithm in a paper trading environment to replicate the issue and gather detailed logs. This can help in identifying the root cause of the connectivity issues.
Community and Support: Consider reaching out to the QuantConnect community or forums to see if others have experienced similar issues and can offer additional advice or solutions.
By implementing these handlers and ensuring proper configuration, you can better manage and diagnose connectivity issues with Interactive Brokers in your QuantConnect algorithms.
