Thank you for reaching out. IBKR is not able to determine the exact latency rate for API. However, an approximation for order acknowledgement latency is 75-130ms. This is described in our documentation here: https://www.interactivebrokers.com/download/salesPDFs/10-PDF0513.pdf. Please be aware that this does not factor in low speed internet connectivity, multi-layer API connectivity, or other unique network configurations. If you have any further questions, please create a web ticket for this inquiry; we have a category specifically for “API.” One of our API experts will be happy to guide you! http://spr.ly/IBKR_ClientServicesCampus
