Interactive Brokers — MyVeridex Integration Guide

Connect your Interactive Brokers account to MyVeridex and track your trading performance with 30+ professional metrics — Sharpe ratio, Sortino ratio, Calmar ratio, max drawdown, R-multiple, expectancy, consistency score, and profit factor. Interactive Brokers supports MT4 across multiple trading servers, all fully compatible with the MyVeridex read-only investor-password connection flow.

Why Interactive Brokers traders choose MyVeridex

Interactive Brokers's native platform gives you execution and a simple P&L history, but it stops short of the risk and performance analytics that prop firms, investors, and serious retail traders actually evaluate traders on. MyVeridex fills that gap without any EA, VPS, or broker-side setup.

• Risk-adjusted performance metrics — Sharpe, Sortino, Calmar, and R-multiple calculated from every closed Interactive Brokers trade. These are the exact metrics FTMO, FundedNext, and prop funds use to evaluate trader applications.
• Drawdown and consistency tracking — Real-time daily and max drawdown, consistency score across sessions, and rolling profit-factor windows. Critical for managing Interactive Brokers prop-firm accounts where breaching a daily loss rule ends the evaluation instantly.
• Trade journal and tagging — Attach notes, screenshots, setup tags, and emotion scores to each Interactive Brokers trade. Filter by setup to see which patterns actually make money on your account, not which ones feel lucky.
• Verified public profile — Generate a read-only link to your Interactive Brokers track record. Prop firms accept MyVeridex profiles as proof of consistent trading history. Also works for attracting investors or collaborating with other traders.
• Multi-account dashboard — Track multiple Interactive Brokers accounts (live, prop, demo) side-by-side with aggregate performance. See at a glance which account is actually profitable over your chosen window.

How to connect your Interactive Brokers account (2 minutes)

1. In your Interactive Brokers terminal (MT4), open Tools → Options → Server and locate your investor password. If you have never used it, request it from Interactive Brokers support or generate one in your account portal — every broker offers it free.
2. Create a free MyVeridex account (7-day trial, no credit card). On the dashboard click Connect Account, select your platform, and pick Interactive Brokers from the broker list.
3. Choose your Interactive Brokers trading server from the auto-populated list, then enter your account number and the investor password. Interactive Brokers runs on MT4 using the standard investor-password handshake — read-only access that reveals trades and balance but cannot place orders.
4. Your trades sync instantly. The first 30 days of history populate in about 2 minutes; your full account history follows over the next several minutes. All metrics update in real time as new trades close.

Frequently asked questions about Interactive Brokers on MyVeridex

Does MyVeridex officially support Interactive Brokers?

Yes. Interactive Brokers is fully tested on MyVeridex across MT4 and multiple trading servers. The connection uses a direct investor-password handshake — no broker-side integration required, no approval needed from Interactive Brokers, no EA to install. If you can log into your Interactive Brokers investor account, MyVeridex can track it.

Is it safe to share my Interactive Brokers investor password?

Yes. The investor password is by design read-only — it allows a third party to view trades, balance, and equity but cannot place, modify, or close orders, and cannot withdraw funds. Even if the credentials leaked, no one could trade on your Interactive Brokers account or move money. MyVeridex encrypts credentials at rest and in transit.

Can MyVeridex place trades on my Interactive Brokers account?

No, never. MyVeridex is strictly a tracking and analytics platform. It reads closed trades and open positions for performance calculation, but it does not have the master password and cannot interact with the trading terminal. Your Interactive Brokers master credentials stay with you alone.

How much does it cost to track my Interactive Brokers account?

MyVeridex starts with a 7-day free trial, no credit card required. After the trial, paid plans begin at €9/month for one Interactive Brokers account with full feature access, and €19/month for up to ten accounts (ideal for traders running multiple Interactive Brokers prop-firm evaluations in parallel). There are no per-trade fees or data limits.

Does MyVeridex work for Interactive Brokers prop-firm or funded accounts?

Yes — prop-firm evaluation accounts are one of the most common MyVeridex use cases on Interactive Brokers. Many traders use it to monitor daily drawdown against prop-firm rules, watch consistency score in real time, and export a verified track record when they transition from evaluation to funded. Most prop firms permit external read-only analytics; check your specific firm's terms of service if you're unsure.

Do I need a VPS or Expert Advisor to connect Interactive Brokers?

No. Unlike traditional tracking tools (Myfxbook, FX Blue) that require you to install and maintain an Expert Advisor on a VPS, MyVeridex connects directly via your broker's investor password over the MetaTrader server. Zero installation on your side, zero VPS costs, zero EA crashes to debug.
