Realtime data analysis using SDK

S

Splat

Hi Everyone!

Is anyone actually using an SDK to analyse stock data
from a real time datafeed? I would appreciate any help
in a brief description of setup i.e. vendors of datafeed/SDK
and any analysis software that you use.

I am looking into doing some analysis using something
like matlab with an sdk if I find something suitable.
Failing that I may hook matlab into Tradestation 2000i
to do my analysis.

I tried searching this time through the forums but
couldnt find any relevant information.

Regards,

Splat

Sounds from your msg that you are using the mytrack
api. I dont want to sound nosy but would you mind if I ask you
a few questions:

a) What service plan do you use?

b) Also maybe I am mistaken but mytrack seems to
have a symbol limit. Does mytrack have such a limit?
If so does this cause any problems or hit on you in
anyway?

c) Are there any limits of anyother kind?


Best Regards,

SPLAT: the basic plan will do fully.
the symbol limit (20) is implemented by their software client you are running, so it applies for it. i have not checked if they created a symbol limit recently for custom applications on the server side. there are no further limitations and the service is robust, but if you want several extras it will be costly, since the plan itself is cheap but they are charging for everything else (and sometimes heavily).

saschabr: Can I ask you one more question? How much
do mytrack charge you for your datafeed and the use of
the SDK? So are you saying it is 25$ p/m for the SDK,
and 4.98$ p/m for the feed? Is that it?

I really appreciate the info.

SPLAT: Of course.

Sorry for misunderstanding "basic plan". I mean the plan which costs $19.95. The real "basic plan" will only provide delayed quotes.
You will pay $19.95 + $25 (SDK) + exchange fees. More is not necessary.

Thanks for the info. A good book I would suggest you read is:

The Encyclopedia of Trading Strategies
by Jeffrey Katz, Donna McCormick
ISBN: 0070580995

It tells you how to create your own trading strategy
using Tradestation and also using Trading API/toolkits.

Good luck,
