Tyler Goodlet 8c25892521 Fix (really sidestep) flat bar rendering issue(s)
It seems a plethora of problems (including drawing performance) are due
to trying to hack around the strange rendering bug in Qt with `QLineF`
with y1 == y2. There was all sorts of weirdness that would show up with
trying (a hack) to just set all 4 points to the same value including
strange infinite diagonal ghost lines randomly on charts. Instead, just
place hold these flat bar's 'body' line with a `None` and filter the
null values out before calling `QPainter.drawLines()`. This results
in simply no body lines drawn for these datums. We can probably `numba`
the filtering too if it turns out to be a bottleneck.

piker

trading gear for hackers.

travis

piker is an attempt at a pro-grade, broker agnostic, next-gen FOSS toolset for real-time trading and financial analysis targetted at hardcore Linux users.

it tries to use as much bleeding edge tech as possible including (but not limited to):

Focus and Features:

  • zero web
  • zero pump
  • zero "backtesting" (aka yabf)
  • zero "cloud"
  • 100% federated: your code, your hardware, your broker's data feeds
  • privacy
  • broker/exchange agnostic
  • built on a structured concurrent actor model
  • production grade, highly attractive native UIs
  • expected to be used from tiling wms
  • sophisticated rt charting
  • emphasis on collaboration through UI and data sharing
  • zero interest in adoption by suits
  • not built for sale; built for people
  • no corporate friendly license, ever.

fitting with these tenets, we're always open to new framework suggestions and ideas.

building the best looking, most reliable, keyboard friendly trading platform is the dream. feel free to pipe in with your ideas and quiffs.

Install

piker is currently under heavy pre-alpha development and as such should be cloned from this repo and hacked on directly.

A couple bleeding edge components are being used atm pertaining to new components within trio.

For a development install:

git clone git@github.com:pikers/piker.git
cd piker
pip install -e .

Broker Support

For live data feeds the in-progress set of supported brokers is:

  • Questrade which comes with effectively free L1
  • IB via ib_insync
  • Webull via the reverse engineered public API
  • Kraken for crypto over their public websocket API

If you want your broker supported and they have an API let us know.

Check out our charts

bet you weren't expecting this from the foss bby:

piker -b kraken chart XBTUSD

If anyone asks you what this project is about

tell them it's a broken crypto trading platform that doesn't scale.

How do i get involved?

coming soon.
