It is the value (in USD) of the portfolio where you buy 100 USD worth of A and sell short 100 USD worth of B at the start of the graph (1 year ago). Maybe saying the unit is percentage (%) of 100 USD makes it clearer and still correct? (I couldn't figure that one out so I just left it.)...

Sorry about that. I have increased the timeout when reading from the data provider.

Did any of you actually get the tool to work? Ie. by going directly to a concrete pair: http://pt.christianhvid.dk/#AAPL-GOOG

It is not really comparable; it is more about examining data, best demonstrated with an example: http://pt.christianhvid.dk/#AAPL-GOOG

I am sorry about that; the tool does a lot of client side calculation. I have tested it on Firefox Mac OS X and it runs as expected. Can you tell me more about your configuration?

For the same reasons that you would put on a trade in single instrument without it being automated. For example you have the idea that of the FANG stocks, Apple is strongest and Google's advertisement business model is about cruble due to political and societal backlash. So you want to short...

Hi. (I hope this is a suitable subforum.) I am working on a tool for supporting (non-automated) pair trading: http://pt.christianhvid.dk And I am looking for some early feedback. What do you guys think? It runs in a (modern) web browser and does not require signup. -- Christian

d08; I did read the thread, I just see things differently.

zdreg; wise words - I will be armed with patience.

tommcginnis; thanks for the link to the other thread. I just read though it and it is maddening. Completely absurd that the EU would cut its retails investors from the cheapest and most transparent ETFs on the market. zdreg; what way around this do you see?

I am getting the following message attempting to trade the etfs: SPY, TLT and DBC: This product is unavailable to clients classified as retail clients. Note: Invidiual clients and entities that are not large institutions generally are classified as retail clients. There may be other products...

Hello forum. I am trying to get my head around the following. I have 10.000 USD in a margin account at Interactive Brokers. And I buy 5.000 USD worth of GOOG and sell 5.000 USD worth of FB. So I have: 10.000 USD cash 5.000 USD of GOOG -5.000 USD of FB And I hold this position for one year...

I was told: Programming is about choosing the right set of primitives. The query languages of complex event processing systems look a lot like SQL: http://esper.codehaus.org/ http://coffeeonesugar.wordpress.com/2009/07/21/getting-started-with-esper-in-5-minutes/ From the example below...

http://web.progress.com/en/apama/studio.html Nettecture - I can follow you in what you are saying - and it was also my experience - I ended using a general purpose language.

I'd be interested in participating. For my own setup I originally had a DSL I used for genetic programming but now I just have a single Java class and then use dependency injection, static imports and annotations to get a more concise definition of my trading system. This is thread on...

Beyond toy examples - not really. Maybe tradestation or one of the financial focused complex event processing solutions.

No. IntelliJ is a very good IDE. Industry leading in many areas. And if you use an open source tool chain - say apache ant (or maven) for building and subversion for version control - then this free edition completely covers what you need.

Nitro. The answer is Swing. For what you are doing Java and Swing is the best choice. Used right JTable does not have any performance issues; glazedlist is something you can look into if you want a more advanced table ui. For an example of a nice fast crossplatform Swing application...
