Request for Beta

Hello Jerry,

 

I am a long time user of QT and on version 3.9.8a. My broker is IB. Recently, I lost the ability to backfill with IB data source in QT. I maintain a TDA account just for the sake of QT but with this backfill bottleneck, I started looking on the net for other options and am very excited to learn about medved trader. Could you please send me the beta, please? I would love to try it. Thanks!

I noticed that the Westpac webpage is the same coding as the Commsec webpage from a parsing perspective, however I understand that you require a feed for the data and I'm unclear as to the format for each, if this is of any use. QT would allow to show last fetched page but that doesn't mean that it's a webpage download for each code.

Cheers

Sure but from a parsing perspective the coding is the same. In the Commsec quotes page is a table with an ID of id=yui-dt0-th-Buyers, for example. The Westpac page has the same ID codes as the Commsec page, so it was easy to parse the data using a couple of hundred lines (without error handling) of VB script from the Westpac quote pages for when Commsec was not working. I use the Commsec quotes pages for an Excel spreadsheet but the VBA for that has thousands and thousands of lines of code in it (with error handling).

Cheers
