TD/paper trading

[genesisGenerations]

hello! Do you have a timeline for TDameritrade support with backtesting and papertrading support? Is this being developed for commercial use or contributors?

[torreyleonard]

This is still a plan for the future since I know many people use TD. I wrote most of it a few months ago, but I hope to have it available for release within the next few months.

@Ladinn do you have a WIP for TD? I can probably help with it since I'm looking to start using the TD API

I can probably help too. We wrote a lot in Node.js for one specific options application but could standardize it

TD has Portfolio Margining which is lightyears more practical than the Reg-T margining, other retail equities and equities options brokers do not have this, so it is important to add this case to extend the constraints of how this library works.

Don't forget theres plaid.com that can give your portfolios and positions/holdings from all the brokerages. No ability to trade through that but it's still another tool i think is relevant

@torreyleonard do you have a WIP branch for the TD Ameritrade broker? I have a rough cut REST api started for it (not in line with this project's interface) but I'd love to sync with others.
