TickZOOM Decision. Open Source and FREE!

Oh, I have some more testing to do to release it. I don't want to dump it even on "beta" tester until it's pretty solid.

I'm scheduling to release the code around or right after the holidays because I'll have more time to do then.

Mean time, I'm progressing on that but focusing an all the licensing, legal, business, administrative issues, documenting, website setup, etc. to get ready for that point.

I will turn up the website at tickzoom.org over the weekend with documentation and the video so people can get a "look" at it.

Then I can focus entirely on releasing it.

I'll accept questions on the documentation during that time so that I can update, clarify, improve the documentation.

Anything worth doing is worth doing right.

Sincerely,
Wayne

 

By the way, what do you want with the source? Under GPLv3 you can't use it in OpenQuant as a closed source system.

ok, ok , I can't use it But where is the source ?

 

Sorry. Didn't I answer that it well be released during or after the holidays?

Do you mean where is it now? On my PC.

Wayne

 

Ok, give me a note when it can be downloaded on my PC

Thanks a lot,
Anton

 

PS. If someone is interested in looking on OpenQuant demo videos, demonstrating backtesting with 1M+ ticks per second, including market depth events, and switching between backtesting and live trading with one mouse click, it's here

The source code, supported under 7/24, is also available, though it's not free

Cheers,

When you use .NET, the source code is always free for anybody to see

 

Not obfuscated

 

Anton: what do you charge for the OQ source?

 

Hi,

You should contact QuantHouse, www.quanthouse.com . They have an exclusive license for all SQ products. No promises, but there is a chance to negotiate a SmartQuant source code deal.
