I was starting to do coding on generating Simple Moving Averages of Yahoo! Finance quotes when I found out that there already is an extensive technical analysis function library called TA-Lib.
Making use of what’s out there instead of reinventing the wheel, I’m going to use the following libraries / frameworks for Euclid:
- TA-Lib: Technical Analysis Library. It is widely used by trading software developers requiring to perform technical analysis of financial market data.
- ZedGraph. An open source charting library that includes a Candlestick Chart.
- Prism2. A smart client modularity framework.
- WPF Toolkit for the datagrid and WPF Ribbon for that Office UI look.
- AvalonDock. For docking capabilities.
Depending on the need for data persistence, I might also consider tossing in db4o object database into the mix.
