Hi, great idea! As far as I understand though, this isn't possible natively, SC doesn't expose IB's Generic Tick types through ACSIL. Some alternatives worth trying: Fee Rate can be pulled from IB's FTP endpoint (ftp3.interactivebrokers.com, user: shortstock) via sc.MakeHTTPRequest(), though it only updates once a day. For Shortable/ShortableShares in real time, you'd need a separate process connecting directly to IB Gateway and passing the data into SC via a shared file. Utilization doesn't seem to be available through the IB API at all, only visible inside TWS itself.
