Thanks to Flynn for the patch. 20051004: Applied patch #1312718 - AROON indicator fix. Thanks to Flynn for the patch. 20051006: Added Chaikin Oscillator method to the AD plugin. 20051006: Added Chaikin Money Flow method to the AD plugin. 20051006: New Indicator VOLA - volatility. This contains the new Chaikin Volatility indicator, SD indicator, and the VOLR indicator. 20051006: Removed the SD, VOLR plugins. They are folded into the VOLA plugin. 20051012: Revised the CUS gui/storage format. This breaks all the CUS formulas that use the old format. Need to update CUS docs for full details. 20051012: Removed the i18n/qtstalker_pl.qm file from CVS. Configure now generates this file. 20051012: Removed the COMP, COUNTER, MATH, REF plugins and folded them into the UTIL plugin. The switch to the new CUS format allows us to do this. 20051012: Removed the lib/FormulaInput.* files from CVS. Now deprecated. 20051012: Fixed bug in STOCH that used BarData for high/low instead of user provided data. 20051012: Had to remove the AND/OR and THEN/ELSE functionality from the COMP plugin. The new CUS format makes this very difficult. Instead user will have to replace the removed logic with additional steps in their CUS scripts. grrr more CUS breakage will ensue. 20051012: Fixed bug in CUS::getMinBars that did not calculate minBars properly. This was causing the Scanner to fail because not enough bars were being loaded. 20051013: Removed the Macro functions. I am not satisfied with them as they appear half-assed. They need to be revised at a later time. 20051013: Merged AdaptiveSTOCH plugin into the STOCH plugin. 20051013: Merged ROC plugin into the MOM plugin. 20051013: Merged PER plugin into the UTIL plugin. 20051014: Removed the MAOSC plugin. It duplicates the MACD plugin. 20051014: Merged VT plugin into the VOL plugin. 20051014: Moved the LOWPASS code out of the MA plugin back into it's own LOWPASS plugin. MA code was getting messy to wrap easily. 20051022: New indicator plugin BARS. Use this to plot bars/candles in any plot area. 20051024: Removed the chart plugins. Bar and candle are replaced by the BARS indicator plugin. Users can create more flexible charts now. I am not sure if I will add Swing/P&F/EP styles to the BARS plugin. I will need substantial user complaints to restore them. Users will now have to create a BARS indicator and add it to the main plot manually. This way, users can put bars/candles on any plot they want. 20051024: Added a COLOR option to the UTIL plugin. Adds ability to change the color of individual bars. Use this in CUS scripts to create paint bars/candles etc. 20051026: Merged all the plot types (Main, Stacked, Tabbed) into one tabbed style. Up to 3 rows of tabs can now be created. Just choose the row # in which you want the indicator to appear. 20051026: Moved the Log Scaling and Date plot toolbar functions to each individual indicator. The indicator popup context menu now contains these toggles. 20051026: Fixed bug #1332975 - chart objects available for deletion. 20051028: Moved the crosshairs toggle from the plot context menu to the main toolbar. 20051028: Added a filter box to the indicator page. Works the same as the one in the chart page. 20051031: Added zone lines to the CCI plugin as per request. 20051101: Changed weekly chart dates to use month number to avoid overcrowding. 20051101: Fixed chart info writing over chart bars. 20051102: Applied patch #1345509 install.html - use binary release Qt and DB 20051103: Added new paper trading mode. Toggle the paper trade mode toolbar button. 2 new buttons will appear beside the chart slider. The first button allows you to set the date you want to start the paper trade. The second button advances the chart by one bar. This allows the user to simulate paper trading easily. 20051106: Upgraded FreeBSD compiler directives to use Berkeley DB 4.3. 20051106: Fixed bug in the Tester that did not use trade delay properly. Use the trade delay to enter/exit trades on the next trade delay bars. 20051106: Added bar compression option to the tester. 20051107: Added bar compression option to the scanner. 20051108: Removed the bar chart from the tester plot page. Not really useful. 20051110: Applied patch #1353064 - PlotLine copying. 20051115: CME changed the file format. Updated the CME quote plugin. 20051115: Fixed bug in tester that does not exit trade and enter new one within the same bar. This also fixes the 2 consecutive TRUE values to trigger an alert bug. 20051115: CUS scripts can now handle comments. You can either dedicate an entire line to a comment or you can place a comment at the end of a line. All comments must start with a // the same as C++ comments do. Here is an example: // get some candles candles := BARS(Candles) vol := UTIL(REF, Volume, 0) // get some volume bars 20051117: Changed the tester volume percentage option to default to a volume of 1 if it is set to 0. 20060117: Applied patch 1366297 - percentage profit for each paper. Thanks to imo for the patch. 20060120: Fixed CUS parsing error with input array labels ie. Closen, Opened etc. 20060204: Experimental: Added new indicator TALIB. This uses the TALIB library to create any TALIB indicator. 20060205: Added TALIB CUS reference docs. 20060205: Removed TypPrice from the UTIL plugin. 20060205: Removed the OBV function from the VOL plugin. 20060205: Removed the SD function from the VOLA plugin. 20060205: Removed the AD, AROON, ATR, BB, CCI, CMO, DMI, DPO, MA, MACD, MF, MINMAX, MOM, RSI SAR, STOCH, TRIX, WILLR plugins and docs. 20060205: Added new MA types from TALIB. 20060208: Fixed bug in CUS plugin that did not accept a non-input from BARS plugin. 20060209: Fixed bug in TALIB plugin that did not keep settings when being modified. 20060601: Removed all the macro code. Would like to wait until the main code has stabilised before we continue with the macro module. Would also like to put all macro code into a single separate module. 20060617: Removed the chart object plugins and merged the code into qtstalkerlib. The amount of overhead and code complexity of plugins is not required. I believe it is more effecient to use qtstalkerlib instead. 20060617: Added icons to the chart object popup menu items. 20060620: Fixed bug in Tester that did not calculate account balances properly as trades are made. We always ended up with a few 100 more unexplained dollars. 20060621: Cleaned up the Tester code by splitting off code into sub classes. 20060623: Added a toolbar to the chart page on the Tester gui. 20060628: Added a bars parm to the scanner gui. Users will have to set the value manually. 20060628: Added a midpoint option to the entry/exit price in the tester. 20060629: Restored the bar chart to the tester. Instead of buy and sell arrows to indicate entry and exit points, we are coloring the bars green for long and red for short. I like this better than the arrows. 20060630: Fixed bug in tester that caused stops to delay by an extra bar. 20060630: Added option in the tester that calculates commissions as a percentage of the total amount bought. Check the 'Use Commission %' option and input the percentage ie. 0.02 for 2% or 0.1 for 10% etc. 20060703: Added option in UTIL(REF) indicator function that allows user to create Horizontal lines in CUS scripts. ie. hline := UTIL(REF, 5.5) would create a plot with one value of 5.5. Then apply the 'Horizontal' line style option to the hline variable to plot it. 20060704: When creating/editing CUS indicators, the user no longer has to input the variable name manually. User can now choose from a list all the available variables. 20060708: Fixed bug in tester that continued to enter trades even when account lacked the required amount of funds. 20060713: Added key shortcut (CTRL+Key_Right) to advance chart one bar in paper trade mode. 20060716: Simplified and improved the bar creation functions in DbPlugin for speed and memory. 20060716: Removed the IndicatorPlugin::minBars function. Not practical anymore as we move toward TALIB integration. 20060716: Papertrade mode now works with all bar length charts. Previously only worked with daily charts. 20060717: Added search filter boxes to the Tester and Scanner panels. They work the same as the Indicator and Chart panels do. 20060717: Fixed bug in Scanner that did not clean group directory properly before starting new scan with same scanner rule. Was generating link errors. 20060804: Removed the chart type plugins and merged them into DbPlugin class. I do not see these to change much over time so we don't need the extra overhead. 20060804: Added option to CC type charts to create gapless/non-gapless charts. 20060829: I got tired of looking up the correct format for each indicator when constructing CUS indicators. So, I added a format builder dialog to the CUS dialog. This allows the user to quickly use the dialog to construct the CUS format for each variable and insert it into the editor. 20060829: VIDYA indicator dialog missing input array parm. Fixed. 20060903: Added proper TA_Initialze and TA_Shutdown function calls to the TALIB indicator. 20060905: Added default indicators to new installs and upgrades. Bars, Candles, Volume. Add more? 20060908: Fixed: Group panel now refreshes after a scanner is completed. 20060912: Applied patches: 20060912: Changed local indicators function to use directory symlinks instead. 20060912: Expanded and polished the TALIB docs and plugin operations. Missing parms and lists now available in the gui dialogs. 20060914: Changed the gui to improve record navigation for editing chart records on disk in the Edit Chart dialogs. 20060920: Upgraded TALib source to 0.2. 20060920: Removed indicator UO.
