IB Dashboard

Simple Interactive Brokers dashboard using vanilla JavaScript frontend and a small Python backend.

Requirements

• Python 3.8+
• IB Gateway or TWS running locally on port 7496

Install

python -m pip install -r requirements.txt

Run

python backend/app.py
# then open http://127.0.0.1:8000 in your browser

Usage

• Enter symbols (comma-separated) and click Subscribe.
• The page polls for quotes and positions every second.

Notes and limitations

• This is a minimal example. It uses polling rather than websockets or SSE.
• The backend relies on ibapi to talk to the local IB Gateway/TWS. Make sure the gateway is configured to accept API connections.
