    Looking for platform independent API

    Who said they didn't? My dollars will not be handled by it, period. Also: Novell, Wikipedia, and Mozilla are the only notable companies there. C'mon. Compare that to the number of companies using C/C++, Java, or even Python. Wake up. Might as well use WINE.

    Looking for platform independent API

    I'm sorry, at the expense of being rude, this solution is much much worse than using MSVS. Using C# is something I will never do. Using C# on Linux for mission critical financial software? Sounds like you guys were trying to take a shortcut and develop something very quickly because your...

    This solution is Windows only? Even worse, A Visual Studio solution? No thank you. I'd rather use Java on Unix than anything bound by MSVS.

    IQfeed is $50 per month, and they are both Microsoft Windows only. What is this world coming to. Is $50 per month the going rate for most feed systems such as this?

    just2trade would be perfect, except they have extremely bad reviews. lowtrades is too new and I can't find much feedback. I discovered optionshouse and thought I had found it! But they require $30k to use the API. The hunt continues...

    No biggie, I am extremely ignorant. Just about stocks, not computing ;ppp It sure does look like you're right on the money about Java, and with nxcore I'm not sure of a broker that supports it. They all seem to do either Java stuff if they are reputable, or HTTP stuff if they are not.. Thank...

    You are nothing short of insane buddy. Go get a CS degree, then give me computing advice, thanks. Stability my friend, pure stability. Java, and certainly C# don't meet my stability requirements. Neither does Microsoft Windows. Not by a long shot. Also, FYI, I wrote that I wanted to...

    This is an issue.. I am not putting forth that kind of funding right now. :( Seems like I may have to get over this hatred of Java.. :mad: There has to be something else out there

    This looks grand, but who can I connect this engine to? Where does the funding come from? Does there not have to be a brokerage middle-man? It's completing the full picture that I'm having trouble with.

    The TWS Standalone API is Java based.. hence the .jar file. Source I want to use UNIX C/C++ only for trading. I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy. I actually know what an ABI and API both are. Coding a kernel for MIPS utilizing an ABI was quite some fun! (I have been coding for a...
