Now, i think i have a modified proposal here. Anyone interested to develop something like this platform and get it as open source. fxone.com spreadsheet platform with high performance and broker neutral What i would like if it i can have it open source. If interested, pm me
I love to learn to code but i do not have time due to my full time work. My full time work is time consuming and good rewarding
I have the basis for an Algo platform its java but only has apis for Yahoo data and IB TWS (data and trading). Any broker can be used you just need to build the interface. See the broker package. https://code.google.com/p/trade-manager/ Would be a good start for what you are doing. For algo's you can use the DB just to store summary data i.e sample periods. Up to you guys. Starting with some platform will get you past the biggest hurdles of deciding language, base features, architecture e,t,c e,t,c Just take the code base and build out the areas you are interested in.
