Maybe more research is needed to convince yourselves, but adding robust support for ETFs might be an opportunity get jStock additional exposure. I thought it was good enough to at least offer back to you as an idea, and to show how valuable I think this feature is. In the short term, it certainly works for me, and I was able to use it to find some trading opportunities. After having become familiar with how jStock pulls Yahoo finance and after realizing that the same Yahoo URLs could be used for pulling ETF historical data and charts, I came up with the "UnitedStateETF" approach. I implemented it yesterday based on what I have figured out about the codebase so far. I completely agree that having a UnitedStateETF is not the desirable long term solution. Luckily we have a Perl programmer in our team right now. Regarding on generating CSV file, we will primary write Perl script to go to the best destination to grab the information. It should contains Board and Industry as well in upcoming release (1.0.5p)
JSTOCK PREMIUM CODE
Currently, it only contain symbol, code and name information. Currently, the upcoming China stock market is using this mythology. We will make JStock able to retrieve a more complete stock database, by hosting the stock database information in our own server (Currently, I am using Google App Engine. Hence, instead of providing a country named Country.UnitedStateETF, I prefer to have a long term solution. You may try to change the country to Malaysia, then go to Edit -> Add Stocks… you will get what I mean. However, current database for US market is very incomplete. There should be ETF category for US stock market. Possible make it into next coming release if everything is fine after reviewing (1.0.5n)įor ETF support, in current, we do have a feature where we can add stock/ scan stock based on the stock's industry. Thank you.įor your bug submission, I will review it ASAP as it is mid-night right now. I really appreciate your effort of submitting bugs and feature implementation.
