I am new to Python and started playing around with the Interactive Brokers API. I have a portfolio of options in my paper account and would like to retrieve the risks associated with each instrument.

I started with just a single option contract which I define within the code (DIS...). I understand that I am missing some permissions but I should be able to use tickOptionComputation with ticktype = 83 (based on last close for both option and underlying price).

Where do I specify the ticktype to be be 83? should it be inside the overwritten tickPrice method (and I would need to add it here) How can I be sure my all_risk dataframe is populated before canceling the subscription? I need to somehow tell the reqMktData to stop (via cancelMktData) otherwise my dataframe is never filled and I am just printing updates.

import datetime
from ibapi.ticktype import *
path = '/Volumes/'
filename_Risk = path + 'Risk/Risk_'

def read_risk():
    from ibapi.client import EClient
    from ibapi.wrapper import EWrapper
    from ibapi.common import TickerId
    from ibapi.contract import Contract
    import pandas as pd

    class ib_class(EWrapper, EClient):
        def __init__(self): EClient.__init__(self, self)
            self.all_risk = pd.DataFrame([], columns=['TickerId', 
            'tickType', 'ImpliedVolatility', 'Delta', 'OptionPrice',                                                    
            'pvDividend', 'Gamma', 'Vega', 'Theta', 
            'UnderlyingPrice'])

        def error(self, reqId: TickerId, errorCode: int, errorString: str):
            if reqId > -1:
                print("Error. Id: ", reqId, " Code: ", errorCode, " Msg: ", errorString)

        def tickOptionComputation(self, reqId: TickerId, tickType: TickType, impliedVol: float, delta: float,
                              optPrice: float, pvDividend: float,
                              gamma: float, vega: float, theta: float, undPrice: float):
            super().tickOptionComputation(reqId, tickType, impliedVol, delta, optPrice, pvDividend, gamma, vega, theta,
                                      undPrice)
            print("TickOptionComputation. TickerId:", reqId, "tickType:", tickType, "ImpliedVolatility:", impliedVol,
              "Delta:", delta, "OptionPrice:", optPrice, "pvDividend:", pvDividend, "Gamma: ", gamma, "Vega:", vega,
              "Theta:", theta, "UnderlyingPrice:", undPrice)
            self.all_risk.loc[str(TickerId)] = reqId, tickType, impliedVol, delta, optPrice, pvDividend, gamma, vega, theta, undPrice

    ib_api = ib_class()
    ib_api.connect("127.0.0.1", 7497, 1)

    #Option Contract example
    contract = Contract()
    contract.symbol = "DIS"
    contract.secType = "OPT"
    contract.exchange = "BOX"
    contract.currency = "USD"
    contract.lastTradeDateOrContractMonth = "20191101"
    contract.strike = 126
    contract.right = "P"
    contract.multiplier = "100"

    ib_api.reqMktData(104, contract, "", False, False, [])
    ib_api.tickSnapshotEnd(104)
    current_risk = ib_api.all_risk
    ib_api.run()

    return (current_risk)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    print("List of Risk")
    all_risk = read_risk()
    all_risk.to_csv(filename_Risk + datetime.date.fromordinal(datetime.date.today().toordinal()).strftime("%Y-%m-%d") + ".csv", index=None, header=True)
    print(all_risk)

Currently this is what I get:

As an extra question, when the market is closed, I can't get anything from the BOX exchange, do I need to switch to another one? (NYSE/TOP/ALL or ARCA but I am missing the market subscription there)

  • Thanks Boris (and Airn5475 ) hopefully now it looks better. Regarding the never ending loop, (I doubt) but would nextValidId method be usefull here? Once I get a nextValidId it means the previous app.run() is completed (?) – Hotone Oct 04 '19 at 16:33
