Hi coinbuster,
the problem with all these libs is non-interactivity.
They display only.
We need some interaction, so I'll have to dig into primitives.
I'm choosing between qt and kivy now for what's easier and better to handle.
kivy gives native android support and easier api - which is good.
qt on the other side is more rock-solid and stable on pc's of all kinds.

The separate console log with menu checking is now in my repo, you can test it.
So merging is not a problem for you, you just need a few lines from view.py, few lines from application.py and full consolelog.py ui/consolelog_.py ui/consolelog.ui

Telnetclient is in stdlib of python, I don't need to add it.
- Allow other exchanges, either dump goxtool in favor of requests/telnet or implement additional code for other exchanges
Since telnet is pretty much just used for exploiting people who don't remove I don't understand why you want him to add it.
Hi Sebastopol,
My suggestion is making an MDI interface:
- Dump the Preferences and Log windows (I coded a log window separated and it looks good but the interface is still single windowed)
- Keep preferences in the json format files.
- Add a dockable widget with trade lag / account balances / trades list / trade menu to top right
- Add a list to edit settings (the preferences window) as a dockable widget to bottom right
- All left side will be taken by graph and order book
FUTURE:
- Left dockable widget for automation scripts
- Allow other exchanges, either dump goxtool in favor of requests/telnet or implement additional code for other exchanges
This is my new plan
, it will allow to load/save projects and in future multiple

Aha, I see the changes, I don't like some of the changes though.
Let's try doing it differently, and then maybe merge?
Also I found a way to make the log appear as console in additional window, I'll write it tomorrow though

Mt.Gox is down ATM...
If someone did this fork for Bitstamp would be awesome, it seems MtGox didn't got rid of the laging problem.

It seems gox-gui is irrevocably tied to MtGox -- Just look at the name. I suppose porting it to another exchange wouldn't be super difficult (you just need to fork prof7bit's excellent goxtool and redo the API extensions, websocket, and JSON indexes), although it certainly lies outside the scope of a project named after MtGox. Personally, I'd expect there'll be people forking it for BTCChina.
Really very nice work on this one, and thanks to prof7bit as well for the excellent goxtool.
Cheers.

MtGox isn't really relevant anymore, the tool itself is great but it's pretty much worthless as of now.
MtGox is not irrelevant. Its still one of the largest exchanges with the most trading volume (more volume than most (all?) other exchanges combined) and it has the fastest and most reliable trading engine and API of all exchanges. I wouldn't call that irrelevant.
is there anyway to export all the personal trade data ?
Hello,
I have some comments about graphing...
maybe Qwt could be a solution
http://qwt.sourceforge.net/
see also http://pyqwt.sourceforge.net/
http://www.qtcentre.org/threads/20298-Can-Qwt-be-used-for-financial-charting-(bar-chart-candlestick)
Matplotlib can also draw candlestick OHLCV data
If data are stored in a Pandas DataFrame you can also
look at this

QtStalker http://qtstalker.sourceforge.net/
seems to be interesting too... but C++ not Python
Kind regards

Hehe it sounds like you have a lot of work todo, good luck, and since it's open source, I'll be happy to copy what I like 
if you figure out the log window thing pls tell me

You're right about the performance. And yeah, it wouldn't be wise to use Qt primitives or invent yet another graphing API - better to use something tried-and-tested out there. If only those frameworks weren't so damn ugly. I guess that's because they were designed by technically minded people (like us )...
BTW I have restructured the UI quite a bit to gain more screen estate and accommodate future functionality (just checked in).
)...BTW I have restructured the UI quite a bit to gain more screen estate and accommodate future functionality (just checked in).
Don't have much time but two quick comments:
Application Log on / off: I have been thinking about this one myself. But instead of a check box, I would like a 'log window' option in the menu. That way, it would take up no screen space at all if you don't enable it. Something like: "Tools -> Log Window". The only problem is, I haven't figured out how to pop up a log window on the mac. Every time I tried (using QDialog or QMainWindow), I had problems switching back and forth between the log window and the main window
Any help is appreciated here.
Graphing: yes, it'd be great to have a graphing widget for goxgui. c0inbuster sent me a beautiful screenshot a while ago, and I love his idea of implementing a PyQt widget using the mentioned ta-lib. I would definitely not hesitate to integrate it into the main branch. If, on the other hand, the resulting graph looked something like this (just a random example), I'd probably not be that enthusiastic about it

Like the others said. To check out and run goxgui try:
If you are on linux, change the last command to ./start_linux.sh, if you are on windows use ./start_win.bat
Code:
git clone --recursive git://github.com/sebastianhaberey/goxgui.git goxgui
cd goxgui/run
./start_mac.sh
If you are on linux, change the last command to ./start_linux.sh, if you are on windows use ./start_win.bat
On a whim I tried extracting the files from goxtool directly into the goxgui dirrectory... and it works!
Dont't do that. You will miss important updates and bugfixes of goxtool/goxapi. You should use git.
Running python 2.7.3 (or do i need python 3?)
don't use 3. use 2.7.3 If those git commands dont work you can download the zip file of goxtool manually, and put it into the goxtool directory.
(not a git expert so idk how to best explain this while the author is asleep)
