Hi,

Just tried to switch from the Interactive Brokers Legacy connection to the new method. Getting the following error messages. It seems that it is looking for a running docker ? Nothing is mentioned in the documentation about it ? I only added the IB_USERNAME and IB_PASSORD variables in .env. Without adding ACCOUND_ID and IB_API_URL as mentioned as optional. Am I missing something ?
