Dareminator, By far the best thread on ATS. Though I have started independently sometime back, unaware of this thread, I see that i am following similar path. I am using Anmibroker, Iqfeed and IB as my software/feed and broker. I don't have openquant yet in my toolkit. Few questions: 1. How many streaming quotes are you dealing with? How many strategies do you run live using amibroker? I am using 1000 streaming quotes and about 10 strategies and already see speed issue to scan/explore live using AB. I have aboiut 50 columns in my exploration window. out of which 10 are for signal and others are just some data that I glance manally before placing a trade. 2. How do you differentiate the trade initiated by a particular strategy? Some kind of tag? How do verify performance of a particular strategy that you are trading live? I am assuming IB is your broker. 3. Does openquant works with Iqfeed? or some kind of montly lisc fees to Iqfeed needed? Thanks, Sun Light.
Good question, From what I can gather, openquant can use IQ feed but you need a plug-in. Would be interested to hear from anyone using these two in combination.
This one looks interesting http://www.dotnetforab.com/ since it seems to make it possible to use C# with Amibroker.
Anybody knows if i can use the plugin or whatever provided by the dotnetforab folks to say run my AB systems and call the Sterling API? Or if there is any other plugin/software piece that i can use to call sterling API directly from my AB programs without having to recode them in some other language. Sterling api doc: https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=...documents/Documentation/ActiveX_API_Guide.pdf Thanks! -gariki
