I downloaded the trial version. If I purchase premium plan, will I be able to drive automated trading based on my strategy triggers for /ES ie. sp emini futures? Thank you!

It's not Wealth-Lab Pro, just Wealth-Lab ;)
Sure, you can do that. Follow the instructions in the Help to define a contract the first time for IB, and then you'll be able to chart and trade it by entering a symbol like ESM1 or ESM21, however you like. I'm not familiar with the details of trading futures at TDA, but if they allow it in the API, we can get you there.
If you get stuck, let us know.

Connecting to TD Ameritrade either from Data Manager (providing consumer key) or logging via Order Manager, I get this error:
A third-party application may be attempting to make unauthorized access to your account. For help with your account, contact us. For information on securing your account, visit the TD Ameritrade Security page.
How do I get beyond this for TD Ameritrade?
For IBKR, I did all configurations and can get data e.g. for SPY. For sp emini futures, I tried following the 'Symbology' from help. Using 'ES:FUT:USD:GLOBEX:50' or using ESM21 etc gives me simply error "Error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object".
So please help with IBKR guidance on futures symbology. Thank you very much.

IBKR .. this worked for the sp emini futures "ESM21;FUT;USD;GLOBEX;50", I needed to use the semi-colons ';' and not this ':'
Please help solve the TD Ameritrade login issue.
Please help solve the TD Ameritrade login issue.
TD Ameritrade issue was resolved. I deleted my old API App and created new one and used the consumer key from new App - connection worked fine.
Great. Now you should be able to simply refer to that contract as ESM21.
Hey there, I am using IB build and IB trading account to load ES futures contract. What steps do i need to perform?
