I've tried to setup Interactive Broker's C++ API in Visual Studio 2008, but I know very limited C++ and I keep getiing errors. :<
1) Is there any way to use some kind of light scripting language to connect to Interactive Brokers and make trade. F.E.
login.('username','password')
>>>'Connected'
makeTrade('GOOG','550')
>>>'Trade Completed'
Something light like Python would be just fine, and yes I have looked into IBPY, but I do not understand how the java2python system works.
2) How did you setup your automated system, or how would you set up your automated trading system with Interactive Brokers?

For the first time, traders of all levels can automate their own unique trading strategies, using everyday English. From managing your daily trades to building complex automated systems - with Capitalise.ai you can automate your trading, zero coding needed.
IB's API has a notoriously high learning curve. But there exist a code library called ib_insync that greatly simplifies the algo trading process.
Automated trading can help you increase the efficiency of your trades – by enabling faster execution of your strategies.
The "DDE for Excel" API is by far the easiest of the API's to get up and running, and IB provides a sample program with instructions as to how to get it working. https://interactivebrokers.github.io/tws-api/excel_apis.html
And many options are now available to work with TWS API
