Best Program Supporting Indicators Written in Java?

Recommended Posts

Can anybody recommend a charting/analysis software with the following features:

 

1) Writing custom indicators and trading systems in Java. Best with debugging support in Eclipse/NetBeans.

2) Very strong optimizer for backtesting that fully utilizes multiple CPUs/cores (many threads).

3) No obligation to open a trading account (which rules out TradeStation and TWS). I don't want a broker in a foreign country.

 

I am a software developer and I work with Java daily. I am using an EasyLanguage clone at the moment and find it rather limited and slow.

 

C# would be an option as well, altough I'd prefer Java. But if a .NET based product has an excellent optimizer that would be interesting, too. So far I found these platforms for C# and would also appreciate comments about them:

It might be worth checking out Neoticker from Tickquest. I have not used it for some while but its a remarkable product.

 

1) It supports a variety of external programming languages/frameworks.

 

2) It supports grid optimisation (multiple PC's) on diverse criteria. e.g. most profitable instrument and time frame.

 

3) It is broker independent though does a have a few brokerage interfaces for automatic trading.

 

 

When I did use it I found the learning curve pretty steep but chances are good if you stick with it you will be able to achieve what you desire. I'd be interested what you think if you do try it.

Thanks a lot for the pointer to NeoTicker. This surely is an interesting product. Grid is hot!

 

Unfortunately it does not support Java, but it will be on my extended list, because it works with .NET:

 

"You can use an external development tools such as Microsoft Visual Studio or Borland Delphi to develop trading systems, with full access to NeoTicker® data and services via IDL interface. NeoTicker® supports both COM and Microsoft .NET 2.0"

 

I will have to see how easily and well it integrates custom code written in C#.

 

BTW: Today I have just learned that the optimizer of the product I am currently using (tradesignal.com) will be overhauled in the next major release. It only supports a scripting languag (a clone of EasyLanguage), but as I have written a lot of code for it already, I will see how well things work in the future. Aside from the somewhat buggy optimizer it is really good.

    • I guess US has fund managers and investment banking institutions looking after the portfolios on behalf of their clients.
    • There are many resources related to forex trading available on forums like babypips and forexfactory etc.
    • Candle stick pattern is one of the easiest charting patterns available to learn and make money. However, new traders never learn about the skills needed for earning money but they rush for making money and eventually lose their money.
    • Nothing wrong with being a ‘progressive’. Nothing wrong with being a ‘conservative’.  Very generally, ‘conservatives’ have preponderance of the here and now neurotransmitters, prefer empirical references, the rule of law, and value individual agency (It has been said that conservatives love humans and progressives love humanity) . Very generally, ‘progressives’ are dopaginaric - driven by passion for a better possible future, prefer references to others  (Example Karmela won’t answer questions with facts.  She cites the opinion of 18 ‘experts’), have a penchant for rule by man/mobs not by law , and value ‘societal' agency.  However, excesses of either tendency indicates mental illness, collective malaise, and has consequences.  When either camp is systematically captured by control seekers and/or, situationally by mobs, the whole is lessened. A key sign that is occurring is when one side no longer allows disagreement.  Progressives have  currently gone crazy in those excesses and are no longer allowing anything but unithought... examples - You can still be a vocal pro choice republican.  Try being a vocal pro life democrat. For snicks just try it.  You’ll get cancelled.  Bust a myth about blacks in America, true up the real  history of Republicans ending slavery and what has happened since, how the democrats are the party of the KKK, how Obama did not a fkn thang for blacks in general, be a black republican, etc.    You will get canceled in a heartbeat. Step up and question the social agendas of federally subsidized schools at a board meeting... get treated like shit and also get an immediate case number with the FBI ... Question the requirements to watch and lickkiss the 'rainbows' and also make sure your kids show up for it, not to mention fund transitions out of your pocket and see what you get ‘labeled’ Question mainstream media bias - even just to mention that biased, agenda driven narrative is different from truth in reporting - and see what happens to your voice... Excesses have consequences... imbalances have consequences... just sayin’
