jcl,

I believe that it would be good for the IB plugin to implement SET_COMBO_LEG.

As you may know, I have implemented this already on my Ally plugin, so you can feel free to recycle any amount of that code.

Rationale:

There are two main benefits of implementing Option Combos as opposed to as individual leg orders:

* Lower broker fees. For example, a four-leg order would save approximately $3 USD over four individual orders. I suppose these fees can add up long term.

* Per a discussion with an IB rep in this thread, IB actually processes combos as a whole and not one leg at a time. This simplifies risk management.

Thanks,
Andrew

It's on our list for the next revision of the IB plugin, among other features.
