    You mean charting on Linux with java program? Yes there are some java charting softwares out there today and people can run these java program on Linux.

    But when I start to write my charting software a few years ago, seems these java charting software was not available yet. Beside that, I need to integrate the charting software with some computing intensive code, C++ is a better choice for these kind of tasks.

  2. ProRealtime is Java based so should run on Linux

    I havn't tried either so I have no opinion to offer.

    Of course IB's TWS runs on Linux. Oanda's platform seems to work, though I've never used it for actual trading.

    At one time I had Quotetracker running under Wine on Linux.

    Like the previous poster, I have written my own - but in Java and use the charting library JFreeChart from http://www.jfree.org

    The latter is quite good, but you need to do additional work to get good real time performance.

  3. Curious as to what data feeds work with Linux. If you have Tradestation can you program with the raw data as well using C++ or are you stuck with easy language?
