Hey guys, I'm new here and have a simple question. Is there any problem with coding intraday systems for futures products on Interactive Brokers platform? I currently use Tradestation for trading intraday automated futures strategies. I use IB for discretionary trading. I am running into limits with the Tradestation brokerage (they do not offer extended hours trading on VX contracts). I need to port my systems to another platform but was told that Quantconnect does not allow for futures trading intraday, only on a Daily basis. Is this true?
Thanks in advance,
Alexandre Catarino
No, that is not true.
