Ib Pmcc Advisor

If you're running diagonal spreads in Interactive Brokers and want to stop manually checking every short call for assignment risk, this will pull your full PMCC book and rank which positions need attention. It calculates Black-Scholes delta and assignment probability for each short leg, projects daily P&L out to expiration, and surfaces the top three roll candidates with net credit and DTE comparisons. The earnings warnings are especially useful since it flags both your current short and any roll candidates that land in an earnings window. Requires TWS or IB Gateway running locally. The inline conversation view keeps red flags front and center, but you can request a full markdown report if you need it for records.

IB PMCC Advisor

Analyzes all PMCC (diagonal call spread) positions in the IB portfolio and provides actionable advice on the short leg: assignment risk, P&L projections per day, and ranked roll recommendations.

IB Connection

TWS or IB Gateway must be running locally with API enabled:

Paper trading — port 7497
Live trading — port 7496
IB_PORT env var — default port when --port is omitted (e.g. IB_PORT=4001 for a Gateway container). Precedence: --port flag > IB_PORT > built-in default. Set it in the shell or a .env file.

Port fallback: If the configured port fails, automatically retry on the other port. If the retry succeeds, save to memory which account type worked (live/paper) and reuse it for all IB skill calls in this and future sessions — until the user explicitly asks for the other account. If both ports fail, ask the user to verify that TWS or IB Gateway is running with API access enabled.
