Can't confirm this since I do not use these services, but from
what I've gleaned on past discussions you can set up the strategies
in Tradestation and use Tradebullet (a sub. based service of
Tradestation) to fire the signals in Interactive Brokers. IB has a
Canadian branch but you'll have to investigate if TradeBullet will
work with this. Tradestation has also had problems with
availability of shares for shorting integral to many of the
systems, so I know that some members use this particular setup as
IB usually has shares for shorting. Hope that helps.
