Blocks and BackScanner do not currently have any built in paper trading or money management features. It might be possible to access a web based paper trade account from within Blocks by creating a Browser, but I would not be able to make any suggestions as to which web site to use. Any integration would be minimal as you would normally be limited to passing limited information such as the symbol to website (and only then if the symbol is part of the URL). I suspect it would be just as functional and much easier to have the website open in another browser instead.

IB has a paper trade account for their customers.  Can blocks access more than one IB account at a time?

mrlucky1xx,

I do not know of a way to access more than one IB account at a time using Blocks.  If you have any other questions please let us know.

Thanks for your post!
