# QuantConnect

You can connect your Interactive Brokers account to your QuantConnect account.

## How To Connect

[https://www.quantconnect.com/docs/v2/cloud-platform/live-trading/brokerages/interactive-brokers](https://www.quantconnect.com/docs/v2/cloud-platform/live-trading/brokerages/interactive-brokers)

QuantConnect connects using the TWS API in a locally hosted environment by the QuantConnect team. Because of this, Interactive Brokers, nor our clients, will have access to client logs and as a result will have very limited support for the platform.

\<Warning>IB Key is the only 2FA method supported by QuantConnect. Clients without IB KEY 2FA verification method cannot connect to QuantConnect. For details, please visit: [https://ibkr.info/node/2895](https://ibkr.info/node/2895)\</Warning

## Frequently Asked Questions

#### I already connect my QC to my IB account for live trading, but I did not receive data. Does it require IB data bundle?
