Interactive Brokers outsideRth field

[tomek-r]

Feature Request

It looks like there is no possibility to send the order with flag outsideRth set to True
Can it be done?

Problem Statement

The flag is hardcoded to False:

class Order(Object):
    .....
    self.outsideRth = False
    ....

I want to send order to be executed outside regular trading hours.

Proposed Solution

Make the flag configurable

Example Usage

bracket_order_list: OrderList = self.order_factory.bracket(
                instrument_id=self.config.instrument_id,
                order_side=OrderSide.SELL,
                entry_order_type=OrderType.STOP_LIMIT,
                entry_price=self.instrument.make_price(bar.low - self.instrument.price_increment),
                entry_trigger_price=self.instrument.make_price(bar.low - self.instrument.price_increment),
                tp_price=self.instrument.make_price(bar.low - self.config.take_profit_points - self.instrument.price_increment),
                sl_trigger_price=self.instrument.make_price(bar.low + self.config.take_profit_points - self.instrument.price_increment),
                sl_time_in_force=TimeInForce.GTC,
                quantity=self.instrument.make_qty(1),
                time_in_force=TimeInForce.GTC,
                tp_post_only=False
                outsideRegularTradingHours=True
            )

Alternatives Considered

What alternatives have you explored? Why is this solution preferred?

Additional Context

Perhaps it is possible already but I did not find the way except changing the flag to True in the source code.

It is doable with IBOrderTags.
In factories.pyx, class cpdef OrderList bracket there is :
list[str] entry_tags = None,
list[str] sl_tags = None,
list[str] tp_tags = None,
Example of use :
sl_tags=[IBOrderTags(outsideRth=True).value],

See in documentation :
