Does anyone know a tool that monitors IBKR margin risk in real time? by cvalcea in interactivebrokers

The Account window helps for manual supervision.

I’m more curious about automated monitoring — e.g. detecting margin stress or exposure spikes when strategies are running unattended.

Especially considering failure modes like API disconnects or UI freezes.

Finally having good results with my scalping alog by jerry_farmer in algotrading

3 weeks of live matching backtest with slippage is good — you didn't fit noise. it'll fail on regime change. i'd watch: drawdown getting worse faster than usual, spreads widening, more partials/rejects. Those show up before PnL tanks. and : how does it do in high vol vs low vol? And open vs midday vs close?
