Please make ib-tws (Interactive Brokers Traders Workstation - IBKR) Available

I just installed Interactive Brokers Traders Workstation (AUR package ib-tws) with the help of the forum.

It would be great if it could be part of Manjaro.

tag: IBKR

Do you have any other justification for this request besides that you yourself use it?

Yes, I brought it up because I have an interest in it.

But, I’m pretty sure a lot of people do. I am hoping to see how many people comment and ask for it also.

Even though I suggested ib-tws from the AUR as an alternative to installing the installer script IBKR offers on their site, I don’t actually use it; in fact, I’ve never encountered it before.

It does seem to employ a lot of tracking, if I understand correctly the information on the IBKR site, so, I’m not sure it would necessarily be a good fit for Manjaro.

Additionally, I couldn’t find any licensing information on the site; however, when installed from the AUR (according to the PKGBUILD) there is a license file:

/usr/share/licenses/${pkgname}/LICENSE

…which should reveal something.

Just my 2 cents. Cheers.

Thanks @soundofthunder . I guess there’s a lot more to it than just popularity :slight_smile:

No, it’s not.
