MCP

Every other platform in this category ships a list of supported venues, and your venue is either on it or you wait. QuantIDE ships the layer underneath that list. Model Context Protocol servers are how capability is bound into the machine, the way drivers are bound into an operating system — and the agent writes them.

Your venue is on the list, or you open a feature request.

There is no list, because the list is the wrong layer.

What it does

No integration list to be absent from

There is no product-level set of permitted brokers or data sources. If a service has a usable API, it can be driven. Your venue does not need to be popular enough for us to have prioritised it.

The adapter is authored, not awaited

Describe the venue and the agent writes an MCP server against its API, in your project. It is code in your tree: you can read it, fix it, version it and keep it if you ever stop paying us.

Connect servers you already run

The client speaks standard MCP — connect an existing server, list its tools and call them. Anything that already exposes an MCP interface works without being rewritten.

Bundled where it makes sense

Four servers ship in the box: the backtester, the visualisation surface renderer, the workbench that lists your algorithms and their run history, and a tutor.

Questions
So does QuantIDE support Interactive Brokers?
Not as a pre-built integration, and we will not claim otherwise. What ships is the layer that lets the agent write an IBKR adapter against their API in your project — usually a short job, and the result is yours. That is a different and, we would argue, better promise than a logo on a compatibility page.
What about live trading?
There is no live trading engine in the box. Order routing is something you build through this layer against your venue, with your credentials, on your machine, and you are responsible for testing it before it touches real money.
What happens if I cancel?
The servers the agent wrote are files in your repository. They do not phone home and they do not stop working.
