python -m PyQt5.uic.pyuic -x [FILENAME].ui -o [FILENAME].py
 
python3 -m PyQt5.uic.pyuic -x qt5designtest.ui -o qt5designer.py
Then you can run with your Python 3 interpreter:

As you an imagine, this makes my Interactive Brokers valuable now! I plan to add new content to it as I explore the Python options for my strategy. I no longer need to support Oanda nor Dukascopy options as we I have worked on earlier this year. It is straight to what I call the end game of Interactive Brokers for my ultimate global broker!

Python script to convert Redis query to JSON or CSV for WordPress AMCharts data loader

Python script to convert Redis query to JSON or CSV for WordPress AMCharts data loader

This will be very helpful for my WordPress charts in the near future

This will go through many iterations!!

Here is the sample of the Python script

import redis
import codecs, json
sym = ‘EUR’
fname = sym +’.json’
r = redis.StrictRedis(host=’localhost’, port=6379, db=0)
x = r.lrange(‘EUR’,0,10)
with codecs.open(name, ‘w’, ‘utf8’) as f:
     f.write(json.dumps(x, sort_keys = True, ensure_ascii=False))

 

Important notes:

Original example uses redis-py Python package https://github.com/andymccurdy/redis-py

Original example above was found using dinos66 answer from http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12309269/how-do-i-write-json-data-to-a-file-in-python

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19795012/how-to-convert-a-list-to-jsonarray-in-python

AMCharts data loader example

https://github.com/amcharts/dataloader/tree/master/examples –> refer to the stock samples and see data/MSFT.csv examples

I am sure there will be more to come for this

The proper way to convert market data ticks to OHLC

The proper way to convert market data ticks to OHLC

After my email of:

Convert tick data to OHLC?

I got this response from a long standing newsletter subscriber:

Super busy but my quick answer. A “bar” is just a collection of ticks of some kind. To build a “Minute” bar, you would collect ticks as they come in and store their values in the data structure of your choice. While building that collection you have you have to mark the O and C price and the H and L can change on tick as the structure fills. That data structure is usually an array of DateTimeOHLCV objects of some kind.

HOWEVER, most commercial trading software or developer API’s allow you to import data and have bar structures built out already(as you know). If the person asking the question needs to program bars, they plan on building a trading system scratch and if you can do that you can build a List<> object with values, I would imagine as the tick data structure is the backbone..literally. It sounds like this person should be using trading software like NinjaTrader or TradeStation, ect.. – those are very flexable/extendable and can import data. But there is an API with common trading functionality to write higher level code against as well.
Hope all is awesome!
Another response:
