GoIB VS intelligent-trading-bot

Yeah, I ended up taking https://github.com/gofinance/ib and wrote my own wrapper. This took a long time but has been stable since. I'm basically only doing buy lmt, sell lmt, cancel, and updates orders though. So, the logic is pretty simple. Catching all the return messages and structuring them correctly took tons of debugging, trail, and error. Basically, mapping the messages into the correct orders.

I agree that the conventional (numeric) forecasting can hardly benefit from the newest approaches like transformers and LLMs. I made such a conclusion while working on the intelligent trading bot [0] by experimenting with many ML algorithms. Yet, there exist some cases where transformers might provide significant advantages. They could be useful where the (numeric) forecasting is augmented with discrete event analysis and where sequences of events are important. Another use case is where certain patterns are important like those detected in technical analysis. Yet, for these cases much more data is needed.
