Like I mentioned "As per the past updates". It won't be a surprise if the streams open by end of January. It's upto the provincial ministry to decide. So, I can't tell you that a specific stream might open in April.
Like I mentioned, Pilot programs are opening in early 2020 as posted on OINP updates page.
As you mentioned that your job falls under IT Technical analyst, look for job code and if it falls into the Human Capital priorities stream, you can apply under EE. Go through the list of jobs that province picks the most under Human Capital priorities. And if you're okay, take IELTS with EE requirements and fill the profile. If province picks you, fill a profile on OINP under Human Capital priorities stream and you can get nominated by province.
