IB Portfolio Action Report

Generate a comprehensive portfolio action report that analyzes all positions across Interactive Brokers accounts, fetches earnings dates, and provides traffic-light risk indicators (🔴🟡🟢) for each position.

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.

Instructions

Step 1: Gather Data

Note: If uv is not installed or pyproject.toml is not found, replace uv run python with python in all commands below.

uv run python scripts/report.py [--port PORT] [--account ACCOUNT]

The script returns JSON to stdout with analyzed portfolio data including risk levels, earnings dates, technical indicators, and spread groupings.

Step 2: Format Report

Read templates/markdown-template.md for formatting instructions. Generate a markdown report from the JSON data and save to sandbox/.

Filename: ib_portfolio_action_report_{ACCOUNT}_{YYYY-MM-DD}_{HHmm}.md

Step 3: Report Results

Present critical findings to the user: red/yellow items requiring attention, top priority actions, and the saved report path.

Arguments

• --port - IB port (default: 7497 for paper trading)
• --account - Specific account ID to analyze (optional, defaults to all accounts)

JSON Output

The script returns structured JSON with:

• generated_at - NY timestamp (e.g. "2026-04-29 19:35 ET")
• data_delay - Data freshness ("real-time")

• summary - Red/yellow/green counts
