    Hello Everyone,

    I want to develop my own charting software. Thus I require a charting library which I can use to show charts and give all the charting features that a product should have (for e.g. various chart types, drawings, arrows, images on chart, cloud etc). Can you recommend me a good library for that ?

    Moreover I also want to give user the ability to write and back test trading systems. Thus I need a library which can back test and generate a report. It should support walk forward testing, pyramiding etc.

    I already have a charting software which I developed but I want to get a new one made from scratch. One of the tools that I uses is Modulusfe chart engine but I didn't like their tool & support.

    If you guys could recommend me other libraries that can aid in my work I will be glad.

    Thank you,

    Saurabh

    Why re-invent the wheel? If you are serious about trading, do develop profitable trading strategies using an off-the-shelf trading platform, there is no shortage of them.

    I already sell my charting software. I want to develop a new one which is better in the charting area and has an ability to code & backtest trading systems. I am myself not an analyst.

    Can you recommend me a library I can use to code & backtest a trading system. This library should be compatible with .net platform.
