There’s now limited support for exporting data from a chart to Excel by right-clicking on a chart element and selecting Export => Excel.

Here’s a screenshot from the most recent build. It shows a chart of MSFT with bollinger bands, money flow index, and commodity channel index.

I’ve just posted the first ever alpha release for QuoteBlizzard. Click below to download:

The above link is to the install file for the signature edition of Trade Miner. This is the same as the Trade Miner solution in the SourceForge.net repository with the exception that it includes a code-completion text editor for trading logic.

To get started with a quick example, follow these steps:

1. Import a quote stream by clicking on the add button in the “Data Management” panel. For instance, click “Add”->”Import from”->”Yahoo” and then enter a stock symbol.

2. Open “Method” to edit the trading logic and enter the following:

if (this.Account.CurrentOpenPositions.Count == 0)
{
    this.Buy(1000);
}

The above logic says to buy 1000 units if there are no currently open positions.

3. Select “Method” in project window and click “Run” button.

NOTE: This release is an early alpha version, so you should not expect your saved project files to work with future releases at this point. This release is intended to give users an idea of where this project is going.

Something else to try:

1. Add a moving average to the chart (right-click on candlesticks and select “Moving Average”).

2. Left-click and drag the moving average line to the “Chart Variables” window.

3. The data for the moving average will be available to the trading logic as “this.<ChartName>.<VariableName>” (for the moving average you just created, the variable will probably be “this.Chart_Day.MovingAverage”.

QuoteBlizzard is now maintained as its own project on SourceForge.net.
