I'm using this fork to add Interactive Brokers Gateway to Pandas Datareader.

This package relies on a IB Gateway being active at its default location: https://localhost:5000. You can get the Gateway here. Getting started guide is here for running the service.

import requests
import pandas_datareader as pdr

session = requests.Session()
session.verify = False #required due to self-signed SSL cert

pdr.ib.time_series.IBTimeSeriesReader(symbols='396336017', period = '1w', bar = '1h', session = session).read()

If anyone at Interactive Brokers is watching, please surface options data and an isTruncated flag!

Pandas Datareader readme continues below.

Up to date remote data access for pandas, works for multiple versions of pandas.
