We offer API and FIX CTCI solutions that allow you to build your own trading applications, source market and chart data, and view your CapTrader custody account data - with technology that fits you. Our technologies interlock and complement each other, so you can create a trading solution that is perfectly tailored to your needs.

- Develop a complete trading application that connects to our advanced order routing and trading system via our application programming interface (API):

You can choose between several available API programming languages, such as Java, .NET (C#), C++, ActiveX or DDE.
If you are quite new to API programming, you can use our DDE-for-Excel API sample as a basis for your DDE-based trading application.
No additional technical effort is required for the IB API.
