IB Stop-Loss Manager

Analyzes PMCC (diagonal call spread), naked LEAPS, and stock positions in the IB portfolio and manages conditional stop-loss orders.

Default mode is dry-run — no orders are placed unless --execute is in the request.

IB Connection

TWS or IB Gateway must be running locally with API enabled:

  • Paper trading — port 7497
  • Live trading — port 7496

Port fallback: If the configured port fails, automatically retry on the other port. If the retry succeeds, save to memory which account type worked (live/paper) and reuse it for all IB skill calls in this and future sessions — until the user explicitly asks for the other account. If both ports fail, ask the user to verify that TWS or IB Gateway is running with API access enabled.
