Trading Site of the Day -- StreamBase: Event, Databases, and (unrelated) Charting
StreamBase has a developers kit for using their Event Stream Processor and database.
They have an article on
Using the StreamBase opentick Adapter to Build Market Data Applications.
The database itself could be a useful alternative to SmartQuant's historical data tables,
but the downside is that compression may not be available. I've only skimmed the site. I'm
hoping the code behind the referenced article shows enough that I could re-code it for an
IQFeed or Genesis data stream.
While on the topic of coding, some one pointed out
ZedGraph as a
possible alternative for showing charts. It is open source.
On the other hand, I've been leaning towards
ChartDirector for C++ as
it, as it says, has an API for C++, as well as a host of other languages.
