This webinar describes the process of backtesting for quantitative strategies using IBKR’s historical data. We will show how to use an open source backtesting framework to retrieve historical data through the TWS API and the steps required to progress toward live trading. An example of a fully-fledged strategy will be provided for educational purposes.   

This instructional material presented builds on a recent IBKR blog series: “Building your automated strategy with IBKR: From Back Testing to Paper Trading to Live Execution,” by Jogi Narain of Atreyu Trading.
