Is it possible to get IB API access without opening a 10k account? Do they have a demo endpoint you can use? If you didn't already have an existing system built, having 10k tied up while you build one seems undesirable.
- MoOmer 11y agoPut in 15; enter some low maintenance positions. Simple ideas: sell some spreads on SPY, hold low vol.
- ewang1 11y agoYou would have to put in at least $25k to do anything serious, since the pattern day trading rule would definitely be triggered.
- brobinson 11y agoPDT rule only applies to stocks and options afaik, and only if you have a margin account. It doesn't affect futures/equities/forex.
