Hello. I am looking for an experienced Python developer to implement a complete automated trading system for US equities through Interactive Brokers. The system trades a custom trend-following indicator I built and have been using on TradingView. The core work is to connect this indicator to live IBKR trading so it executes automatically. The system is a flip-flop trend trader. It is always in one of two states - LONG or SHORT on any active position. When the indicator detects a confirmed uptrend it goes LONG and rides it. When it detects a confirmed downtrend it flips directly to SHORT - closing the long and opening the short simultaneously on the same bar close. There is no neutral or waiting state between positions. When the market is ranging the system holds its existing position and continues to trail the ATR ride line stop. Exit occurs only when the ride line is crossed or a confirmed reversal signal flips the position. This is not a design-from-scratch project. Significant work has already been completed: • The custom indicator is built and working on TradingView in Pine Script v6 • The indicator has been converted to Python (764 lines, all layers implemented) • A live IBKR bar subscriber is written (753 lines) • An execution engine and dashboard prototype exist • Four detailed specification documents have been written covering every component Your job would be to validate, integrate, build the dashboard, and deploy - not to design. Everything is specified in writing. You would work to the spec. The project has four phases: • Phase 1 - Validate the Python indicator produces exact signal alignment with TradingView output. Four specific criteria must all pass. This is mandatory before anything else. • Phase 2 - Test the live IBKR connection, confirm bar-close signal routing, flip-flop execution, and ranging hold behaviour work correctly on paper account • Phase 3 - Build a 6-tab web dashboard for monitoring positions, P&L records, portfolio metrics, and scanner • Phase 4 - Deploy to a trading VPS, configure IB Gateway for 24/7 unattended operation, set up SMS alerts via Twilio The system will trade a watchlist of 40-100 US stocks simultaneously with 30-50 open positions at any time. Risk management is built in including hard stops, daily loss limits, and earnings blackouts. Required skills: Python 3.11+, ib_insync, Interactive Brokers API, Flask, Windows VPS management, NSSM process management, Twilio SMS. Must have prior IBKR API experience. An information kit with full project overview is available on request. Full specification documents and source code provided after NDA. Timeline: 3-4 weeks active development plus a paper trading period. Milestone-based payment. If you have built IBKR-connected Python trading systems before and are comfortable working from detailed written specifications. Let me know your thoughts Thanks

Hello, To make sure your flip-flop strategy handles the 4:00 PM EST market close smoothly, I suggest adding a small pre-close buffer, such as executing signals at 3:59:45 PM. This can help avoid lower liquidity and wider spreads when closing 50+ positions at the same time. Since your trading logic and bar subscriber are already built, my focus will be on testing, optimization, and integration rather than starting from scratch. I’ll follow your four phases: validate the 764-line Python indicator against TradingView outputs, integrate it with IBKR and test execution in paper trading, build the 6-tab Flask dashboard for portfolio and risk monitoring, and finally deploy the complete system to your Windows VPS with reliable monitoring and alerts. Could you send the preliminary information kit so I can review the architecture before the NDA stage? Best, Niral

This is an integration-and-validation job, not a design one — your Pine v6 indicator is already ported to Python (764 lines), the IBKR bar subscriber is written (753 lines), and the four spec docs define every component. My role is to make the flip-flop trend trader run live and correct against those specs, starting where you said it must: Phase 1 signal parity. For Phase 1 I'd run the Python indicator over the same historical bars TradingView used and diff the outputs bar-by-bar until all four criteria pass — no forward progress until signal alignment is exact, since a drift there corrupts everything downstream. Phase 2 I test on a paper account via ib_insync/the IBKR API, verifying signals fire on confirmed bar close only, that a downtrend flip closes the long and opens the short atomically on the same bar (no neutral gap), that ranging bars hold the position, and that exits trigger precisely when the ATR ride line is crossed. I'd add guards against duplicate fills and reconnect handling so a dropped socket doesn't desync state. Phase 3 I build the 6-tab dashboard (positions, P&L, portfolio metrics) reading live engine state. For the flip execution — do you want the short opened only after the long's closing fill confirms, or both orders submitted together on the bar close regardless of fill sequence? Muhammad Saad

Hi there, I’ve developed multiple trading systems that connect with TradingView and execute trades on IBKR, including fully automated systems that trade based on custom indicators. I understand the importance of aligning the indicator’s output with the actual trade execution, as even a small discrepancy can lead to significant losses. In addition to trading systems, I’ve built web applications that serve as dashboards for managing multiple trading accounts, allowing users to view consolidated P&L and other important metrics. I’m also a strong advocate for using CI/CD pipelines to automate testing and deployment, ensuring that only thoroughly tested code is pushed to production. Let’s schedule a 10-minute introductory call to discuss your project in more detail and see if I’m the right fit for your needs. I’m looking forward to hearing more about this exciting project.

Hi there, I AM CONFIDENT I can take your existing TradingView and Python implementation through validation, integration, deployment, and production hardening. With hands-on experience in Python automation, Interactive Brokers API workflows, algorithmic trading systems, Excel-based trading interfaces, dashboards, and API integrations, I understand the importance of exact signal alignment, low-latency execution, and robust risk controls before any live deployment. My approach will be to execute the project phase by phase exactly as defined in your specifications. First, I will validate the Python indicator against TradingView to achieve precise signal parity before moving forward. Next, I will test and integrate the IBKR connection, ensuring reliable bar-close processing, flip-flop execution logic, trailing stop behavior, and paper trading validation. Once the trading engine is verified, I will develop the 6-tab monitoring dashboard with portfolio, positions, P&L, scanner, and system health tracking. Finally, I will deploy the solution to a Windows VPS, configure IB Gateway, NSSM services, Twilio SMS alerts, logging, and monitoring for reliable 24/7 operation. Before we begin, I'd like to review the specification documents and existing Python codebase to estimate the validation effort and identify any integration gaps. I'm ready to start immediately. Warm Regards, Aneesa.

Hello!, This is James from Hollywood... I read your project carefully and understand you need a full automated US stock trading system in Python with IBKR and a solid signal execution engine. This is not just trade placement, it needs clean signal handling, risk control, execution logic, and a setup that is reliable once live. I have about 15 years of experience in Python, API integration, automation, software architecture, and trading-related systems. I’ve built execution workflows, alert processing tools, and broker integrations, so I know how important timing, accuracy, and fail-safes are in this kind of project. My approach would be: 1. Review your strategy rules and signal flow 2. Build the signal validation and execution layer 3. Integrate IBKR with logging, retries, and risk checks 4. Test it in paper trading first 5. Refine before any live deployment Relevant work examples: - a stock signal execution tool for a small trading desk - a Python market data monitor for an options workflow - a broker API automation dashboard for trade alerts - a risk-managed execution script for a personal trading system Could you please clarify the following questions to help me better understand the project? 1. What is the signal source, Pine Script alerts, webhook, or Python logic? 2. Should the system start with paper trading before live IBKR execution? 3.

Hello, Your project is well defined, and I can work directly from the existing specifications instead of reinventing the strategy. I have experience with Python 3.11+, IBKR API, ib_insync, Flask, trading automation, async systems, VPS deployment, and risk management. I can validate signal parity with TradingView, integrate the execution engine, build the monitoring dashboard, and deploy the system for reliable 24/7 operation with logging and alerts. One question I'd like to discuss: How are signals currently passed from TradingView to Python for validation, and do you already have benchmark datasets to verify exact bar-by-bar alignment? Looking forward to discussing the architecture and getting your strategy trading automatically while you enjoy your coffee. ? Best regards, Dev S.
