Fibotrader : An Excellent Free TA Software

[Fibotrader]

Thanks a lot Fibotrader. I checked the data files. The one corresponding to the chart showing age of 40 days was indeed not updated for last 40 days as the scrip is not being traded since that day due to some corporate action. The other charts are now reflecting correct age as soon as I update the data files and redraw the charts. Thanks for your clue.

One query to you. Is there any way to make the displayed chart update automatically as soon as the data file is updated? Some kind of configuration setting so that it is not mandatory to manually update the chart every time data file is updated (AmiBroker does it automatically).

We assume you are using ASCII files. If yes, then Fibotrader offers a very nice way to automatically update those. If you select the data source "ASCII data directory" you can assign an import template to the files in there and it will monitor the directory for changes and reload files as neccessary. You get real "Push-Charts" this way.

Yes, I do use ASCII files (CSV format) for updating. Thanks for the tip. But I think the 'Free Version' does not allow setting up ASCII data directory as a source of data. I tried to set it up but I got a message saying the feature is available only in registered version. Is it right?

That's correct. There needs to be some incentive to actually buy our software ;-)

I do agree that everything can not be FREE. I will experiment with the Free Version for some more time and consider going in for the Registered Version.

dear members,

Fibotrader for those who have not been able to purchase MS or AB.

Fibotrader is available as a completely free version. It is as strong as Amibroker. This has one limitation: The only data source available is the manual ASCII import.

As soon as the trial period of Fibotrader has expired, the program switches to the free mode automatically. Besides the data sources all other functions remain available without restrictions.

Tip: Software-Updates can be downloaded as usual through the AutoUpdate or from the website. This way you can always use the most up-to-date version of Fibotrader.

Some characteristic of Fibotrader is given below:
1. Powerful charting
2. Automatic strategy backtesting and optimization
3. Custom scripting
4. Portfolio management
5. Spreads
6. Watchlists/Alarms
7. Powerful filters
8. Multi-user support
9. statistical analysis

Fibotrader : System requirements
Minimum requirements
50 Mb hard disk memory
Windows 98/Me/2000/XP
64 Mb Ram
Internet Explorer 4 (SP1)

Recommended
2 GHz Processor
Several Gigabytes hard disk memory
512 Mb Ram
Internet connection
Internet Explorer 6
Windows 2000/XP
1280*1024 screen resolution
Optical mouse for chart manipulation

Attention: 32 Mb Ram are the minimum amount of memory supported. It is strongly recommended to supply more memory. Note that not all parts may be accessible at the same time.

i think it should be my duty to the new fibotrader users that
they will start their own technical analysis as soon as after installation not
to bother to customize its enviornment. for their convenience i uploaded
my own 'Main' file to Rapidshare. what u will have to do is that unzip it and paste it to
-->your drive->Fibotrader->data. restart Fibotrader.
the 'Main' file contains my own templates and sector wise break up of thousands of BSE and NSE stocks. u could also create your own templates.
