what here has been tested with exchange API's ?
Much work to plug them in? ie: Bittrex??
Those interested take a look at, tradingview.com for btc-e
Or CryptRader.com for the rest, Cryptrader.com is like all the above programs but online in nice html5 ajax.

Trade link is the current solution, those listed are pretty outdated.

I like Meta Trader 4 too. I think it's the best solution for trading.
As far as I understood tradelink, while it is OpenSource software, it won't work until you sign up for an account with their centralized service, right?

I agree, the TradeLink does look more appropriate than the other outdated platforms. http://code.google.com/p/tradelink/wiki/TradeLinkSuite
I come from US Equity and futures trading. My knowledge of Bitcoin trading is limited at this point. Take this for what it is worth.
* Marketcetera: Hardly ever updated, the forums are a ghost town.
* Tradelink: Very capable software if you are looking for automated trading solutions. However, you should be aware of a few things. The original open source version is being taken in an unfavorable direction by the original author. There is a forked version that is worth seeking out. It is working from the last uncrippled version and is not restricted. You are probably on your own if you go with this software. Yet, at the same time it may be the best bet depending on your needs. Very capable platform to build off of.
* Algo-trader: Seems very capable. I would probably go this direction if I was not tied to C++ and C#.
* G-Bot: Not open source, nor can you run your own strategies, nor can you use it with Bitcoin. I'd take it off the list entirely.
+ I should note that going with any of these is going to take programming know-how. No one is going to hold your hand unless you want to pay up. If you are a point and click trader, or with limited programming skills, Tradelink, Marketcetera, and Algo-Trader are probably not worth the time. However, if you do have programming skills, these are a good base to work off of and will take much of the effort away when compared to starting completely from scratch.
Good day.

Your are talking of FIX...
There is also FAST : FIX Adapted for STreamingSM (FAST ProtocolSM)
http://www.fixtradingcommunity.org/pg/structure/tech-specs/fast-protocol
I have no experience about that...
I don't know if SierraChart can manage that.
but I'm also interested into DTC

I read a bit about OpenMAMA (and OpenMAMDA, though that seems to still be quite beta - but it would be my use case!) and am kinda confused:
On their website they always state that one can build applications on top of it etc. but I have yet to find any application that actually DOES use an open standardized feed format, like OpenMAMDA/MAMA tries to be...?
I'd love to build some middleware for OpenMAM/MADMA that hooks into any Bitcoin exchange, loads live data from there and puts it into a standardized format that is usable for a wide range of financial tools (open and/or closed) - at least as data source, potentially even for trading (but that's another step). OpenMAMA sounds perfect for this, but as I said, I want to see at least someone actually USING it in some open source charting software... they either seem to rely on CSV imports and the like or some proprietary broker APIs. Is OpenMAMA in the end also just a tool to design your own proprietary API on top of an Open Source stack or is it actually useful somehow on its own? Or is its format widely known as something different?
Getting a csv of trades from bitcoincharts and processing it to import as CSV is nice and all, I'd love to provide data similar to the SierraCharts bridge code (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/sierrachart-bridge-realtime-bitcoin-charts-v05-mtgox-intersango-6019 - 2(!) years old already), just not only to SierraCharts. Is there really no industry wide standard for simple things like market trades!?
Edit: I found http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Financial_Information_eXchange which seems to be probably what I'm looking for, though according to http://code.google.com/p/tradelink/wiki/TradeLinkFix for example, FIX connectors need to be "fixed" client side, so again a problem... :/

I'm not an experienced trader but I've already learnt a lot. Is there anything you want to know in particular?
Can I try your program? (assuming there's sourcecode that can be audited)

Hi!
This is actually a cli program.
I start it with
======
nohup ./tradeappd.sh -startbot Spread &
======
on my server, while the shell script is just a simple commandline:
======
#!/bin/sh
java -ms64m -mx192m -jar "tradeapp-0.2.0.jar" -daemon $@
======
If you leave the -daemon switch out, the app creates a GUI. Since my server has no X installed, there's no use for a GUI. The bots are configured via property files.
There's no forex interface, because I have no clue how to implement one yet. I'm actually interested in such stuff, and that's why I'm looking for an experienced trader.
Ciao,
Andreas
Unfortunately... it's totally not what I'm looking for. I'm looking for a cli program to trade on stock or forex brokers in a similar way that goxsh.sh does on Mt.Gox.
Have you seen all the other trade platforms out there? There's quite a few but yours looks the most mature non web interface for arbitridge by far I've seen

I don't have an FXCM implementation. Just cryptocoin API implementations yet.
Bot looks like this:

The GUI is deactivated, if you start it with a daemon flag.

What would be nice is a commandline linux bot that can connect to various broker APIs such as FXCM:
http://www.fxcm.com/services/forex-programming/api-programming-interfaces/
Either that, or something that can help connect preexisting bitcoin bots to trading on broker APIs
http://www.fxcm.com/services/forex-programming/api-programming-interfaces/
Either that, or something that can help connect preexisting bitcoin bots to trading on broker APIs
Can you code? Are you familar with those APIs? I run a GUI/commandline bot and released some API implementations...
Unfortunately I can't code beyond making very minor changes to prexisting code. Where is this cli bot you have for FXCM? Can I have a look?

I don't know if this kind of tool exists:
But you should have a look at : (for Python software)
Some data fetching
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.2090730
I'm also working on my own piece of software (with Python / Pandas / TA-Lib / RabbitMQ).
Some features I'd like to implement :
- backtesting
- papertrading
- live trading
Support of multi symbol and multi timeframe for a given strategy
Support of several brokers (MtGox, BTC-E)...with differents symbol (BTC/USD, BTC/EUR, BTC/LTC, LTC/USD...)
linked to accounts.
I released lot of softwares for crypto coins with an open source license (see https://sites.google.com/site/working4coins/)... but I'm quite disappointed
to see that I don't get any reward about that.
I also have some Python code to fetch balance for several exchange (like Cryptfolio)
so it will be easy to add code to send orders.
AMQP can be (in my mind) a good way to uncouple pieces of sofwares... RabbitMQ (pika for Python)
is a nice tool http://www.rabbitmq.com/getstarted.html
I've ever connect to MtGox websocket and send tickers to AMQP (topics) using one script
and connect on the other side an other Python script to display realtime price using matplotlib.

Great, thanks! I was just looking for this.
What will be the best for visualizing data from other sites APIs? Like BTC-T.

Out of interest what is it about open source that you prefer over closed source? Note that some of the closed source packages (like Ninjatrader and MT4) are free to use.
Terminals is free - but server side costs $$$$$ and contains tricky meat grinder for small investors.
It's free as a ticket to scaffold.
Thanks for the list, which ones support bitcoins?
I also find some open source stuff on this wikipedia page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_analysis_software#Platforms
Those are technical analysis packages though so not all support actual trading. Out of interest what is it about open source that you prefer over closed source? Note that some of the closed source packages (like Ninjatrader and MT4) are free to use.
