New Release: v0.7.0 - Oanda API

Added in v0.7.0

  • Oanda API (still some work to do with transactions, trades and orders).
  • Display different time zones in status bar. New York, London, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Sydney, GMT.
  • New intervals: 5-Second, 10-Second, 30-Second.
  • Due to Oanda's 35 currencies and 10 intervals, plus ticks, allow user to decide which to download in bulk. Currently one-by-one.
  • Save settings for the # of Oanda bars to retrieve. Also save the time between downloads that the user has selected for all Command Centre functions.
  • 'Test connection' buttons where User details are entered. For Gain Capital users, a simple "connection worked" message is displayed. For Oanda, the details they have about that user is also shown.
  • User settings - separator to use in backtesting output files (comma don't work in some locales).
  • User settings - Allow user to specify directory to save summary and data files when backtesting.
  • Changed all fonts to Arial.

Fixed in v0.7.0

  • 'Server' field for Oanda users (that option was previously only available when "Gain Capital" was the selected company).
  • Check if the user has cancelled the downloading of Gain Capital Missing Rates data.
  • Row Limit parameter would not work properly if the user's machine locale use "," as the decimal.
  • Scenario: create a new user when creating a new database (as opposed to just using the root user). Later log in using the root user. Root user creates a new Data Manager entry, which in turn creates a new database table. That table is owned by the root user. Later log in as the new user instead of root user. Try to delete that Data Manager entry and will receive permissions error as the table belongs to the root user. Have a 'database owner' config, and use it when creating tables. That way it won't matter what user they log in with - root or otherwise.
  • Oanda's start of day is 4AM GMT.
  • Error thrown if user tries the trial-version of backtesting, and they haven't set up to store the data that the trading system requires, even though the trial-version of backtesting uses its own data.
  • Error thrown if user tries to backtest, in the trial-version mode or not, and there is no data in any of the tables that that trading system requires.
  • On Admin Screen, Users Tab - show a message when changing Server from Demo/Live to not selected, and that user has been set up in the Data Manager screen to be used to download data. Fixed because user must choose either Demo/Live for Oanda and Gain Capital.
  • Don't update the status label if user selected 0hrs 00min, or 0 bars, when downloading price data.
  • Fixed tab orders on some windows.
