    Any free charting software better than EclipseTrader?

    Sounds good, I will check it out. I could make my own software, but I don't have the time right now and I am just trying to evaluate trading for as little as possible before I invest more money into the hobby / lifestyle. It might be the case that I am horrible at it.

    Any free charting software better than EclipseTrader?

    Can you draw a line in QuoteTrader in one time period, then change to another time period on the same stock and keep the line? In other words, can you draw a horizontal line and have it stay put when you change time periods?

    Any free charting software better than EclipseTrader?

    There has not been a new release in a long time. Maybe it was abandoned. I looked at the source code and found it difficult to follow. It's built on TA-LIB which I also find very difficult to understand. Guess I will have to build my own charting software.

    Any free charting software better than EclipseTrader?

    I have been playing around with Eclipse Trader. I would like to do one very simple thing and that is draw horizontal support / resistance and pivot levels on the weekly or monthly chart, then zoom into the daily chart and still be able to see the levels that I drew in the weekly or monthly...

    Free Web-based TA Stock Fetcher?

    I found a site called StockFetcher.com, looks pretty good, but I am wondering if there is something better. I googled and so far, this looks like the best screener that I can find based on technical analysis indicator screening. Does anyone know of something better?

    Where do I get fundamental data?

    I also came across this, not sure if it has everything that I am looking for, but it looks pretty damn close. http://www.gummy-stuff.org/Yahoo-data.htm

    Where do I get fundamental data?

    There is the XRLB program from the sec.gov website, but currently it is voluntary and only 74 companies participate: http://www.sec.gov/spotlight/xbrl/xbrlwebapp.htm

    Vista Rant

    I somehow doubt SP3 will be faster than SP2. The last thing M$ would want to do is make their old operating system, which is already faster than their new OS, even faster. The the only way they can get people to "upgrade" to Vista is by cutting off the supply of Windows XP. Now, it's not all...

    Where do I get fundamental data?

    Do any of these services offer the data in downloadable form, rather than simply on some webpage? It would be nice if all the data could be downloaded in a CSV file -- some standardized format that is easy to parse.

    Where do I get fundamental data?

    I currently have a database full of open/close/high/low/volume quotes which I got from Yahoo. I want to add some fundamental indicators, such as % ownership by investors over time, % ownership by insiders, revenue, profit, etc. all over time. Is there any way to get this information for free...

    Vista Rant

    You can still buy XP Pro, that's what I am using. I will never go to Vista, hopefully whatever comes after Vista will be at least as good as XP. I also boot Ubuntu and I like that OS.

    Need service like OpenTick -- Historial Quote API

    I went with suggestion and I hacked the Eclipsetrader Yahoo Finance driver to fetch stock quotes by ticker symbol and time period. Right now, end of day data should be sufficient for what I am trying to do. If I end up needing more than that, I will probably get a pay OpenTick account. I...

    Need service like OpenTick -- Historial Quote API

    Any ideas on where else I can go (besides hell) to ask this question? Is there a place that is oriented more towards TA programmers?

    Need service like OpenTick -- Historial Quote API

    I am looking to download historical stock data for all stocks on NASDAQ and NYSE to my computer. I plan to dump all this data into a database like SQL Lite. I also want to have an automated way to keep this database up to date so I need a service similar to OpenTick which I can use to download...
