AIOTrade / News: Recent posts

Lately I was added by as a developer in the project and I created a branch called "opencommunity".
This branch should contain a development version that is built by contribution of the community in order to answer better the needs of a trader.

Any contribution, any code, designs, ideas, bug fixes, etc., should be send to me and I'll integrate it (the contributers will be credited, of course) ... read more

I decide to re-open AIOTrade, an open-source, free stock technical analysis and charting platform based on NetBeans to BSD license. And welcome the new developer Moshe who will maintain a community branch.

As I'm working hard for my friends project, I have no much time to go with this project in the near future, so, more community members will be helpful for this project.

I've updated the source tree in trunk to BSD license.

Due to the recent date format change in the Yahoo! historical data, I've updated the relative module:
org-aiotrade-platform-modules-dataserver-basic.nbm

And also updated module:org-aiotrade-math.nbm to fix the bug mentioned at:

There is a bug affects those who's time zone is not UTC:
For each stock, AIOTrade shows the data of the day after. For example, the data of Friday November the 24th is shown in the application at Friday November the 23th.

This bug will be fixed in next release, by far, you can try to add a a property in aiotrade's config file, which is located at:
path.to.installation/etc/aiotrade.conf
change the line:
default_options="-J-Xms24m -J-Xmx128m --fontsize 11"

I'm pleased to announce the 1.0.3 release of AIOTrade.

What's new in this release:

* Charting performance was improved a lot.
* Added an integrated scrolling, zooming controller. Zoom out/in by dragging the thumb side to any scope you want.
* Added an icon beside the symbol, indicating the data source, such as from Yahoo!/CSV etc.
* When you switch to different frequency charting , only the indicators and drawings with the same frequency displayed under the symbol node.
* The symbols under watching will have its real-time charts displayed on a scrolling window. Double click on its title will pop up a standalone window.
* Some times, too many indicators are displayed in chart view, you can double-click on indicator's title to pop up a standalone indicator window for detailed analysis. There will be a scrolling controller attached in this window, and shares the same cursor with the main chart view.
* An experimental IB-TWS data feed interface. As I can only test it on demo environment, this feature is just to be released for wide range testing, I'm even not sure if it really works:-), so please feed me back all the issues, I'll fix them and release an official version as soon as possible.
* Save chart to custom time frame image, even bigger than your screen.... read more

AIOTrade - New Name for BlogTrader Platform

BlogTrader Platform (i.e HumaiTrader) has got an official name as AIOTrade now, which means Artificial Intelligence On Trade, or, All In One Trade. And it will be a fairly large project to be developed.

Did I mentioned this project is one-year old now? and more than 10,000 copies (binary and source) was downloaded.

I've re-packed the source tree, source code in SVN repository is in name of AIOTrade now. To compile the newest source code in SVN, requires NetBeans IDE 6.0 m2

BlogTrader Platform will switch to GPL license now.

The source code that have been released under BSD will be moved to a special tag on SVN, the trunk will be the newer GPLed source tree.

The svn repository of BlogTrader Platform has been set on sf.net, please use NetBeans IDE 5.5 daily build and set proper Java Platform for your trying.

This is a bugfix release.

The package names keep no changed, to avoid breaking outside links on the web.

If you got any warning message that says "... the module named org.netbeans.xxx was needed and not found...", try to copy or move all the ide6/* to user/*

Or, I've repack the bin package, please re-download it.

Changes:

This release supports Daily, Weekly and Monthly charts, all of the charts (including their indicators) will be updated dynamically according to the newest real-time tickers if they are in watching. The indicators and its parameters can be set separately for Daily, Weekly and, Monthly etc. Drawing layers can also be applied separately to Daily, Weekly and Monthly charts. Added Historical Volume Distribution, Zigzag indicators. Added Fibonacci Arcs, Fibonacci Fan Lines, Fibonacci Retracement, Fibonacci Vertical Retracement drawing line. Supported adding Probability Mass chart to any variable of indicator. Some bugfixes, a lot of code cleanups, and fine tuning were also made. User config files and data are not compatible with previous versions.
