I need a coder to clean-up and reorganize some java code, fix some bugs, change the way some libraries are called and/or swap out for newer library. The code is in SVN at [login to view URL] **vWorker Requirements Warning: **This project has vague or incomplete requirements. Make sure to discuss details on-site with Employer before bidding. All messages posted on-site from the Employer are considered part of requirements, including, private messages. Do not bid until you understand the exact requirements. ## Deliverables MySQL is not mandatory, you could use any other open-source database to store the application data, such as SQLite or Derby. * * *This broadcast message was sent to all bidders on Sunday Sep 26, 2010 11:12:13 AM: Ok, here is some detail about the first part of requirements. When you look in SVN (in source tab of website or retrieving via Eclipse SVN plug-in), you fill find 9 project folders, but for now only 3 are important: QuantDesk_PortfolioOptimizer, QuantDesk_StrategyLab, QuantDesk_UI. Currently the UI project and the PortfolioOptimizer project only use Yahoo Data. The StrategyLab project only uses Metastock data. So, the first requirement is to reorganize all the code so that there is a common interface, and all of the above 3 apps can interchangeably use either Yahoo Data or MetaStock data based on user selection at run-time. All the MetaStock code is in the project folder QuantDesk_MetaStock. All the Yahoo Data code is not yet in the project QuantDesk_YahooData; it needs to be removed from the two apps and moved here. Please ask additional questions if you do not understand something in this posting. Thank you * * *This broadcast message was sent to all bidders on Sunday Sep 26, 2010 9:38:04 PM: 2nd requirement is all the existing functionality needs to work correctly after code is reorganized. 3rd requirement is about source of MetaStock data. I do not provide this data myself but I have an account at [login to view URL] which I can share the ID and password with the winning bidder. The contractor should research the [login to view URL] website; I am no expert in any questions related to data downloading; this is something the contractor needs to figure out on their own and then include in the program instructions. Additional requirements will be provided based on bidder questions only, so, please ask for clarifications on what area you need more details. * * *This broadcast message was sent to all bidders on Monday Sep 27, 2010 2:17:53 PM: One bidder has asked if UI does not do anything. That is not true. It downloads data from Yahoo an provides charting and stock screening/scanning. But you have to wait a few hours for the app to start up fully. 4th requirement is to make it fast - with progress bar for te download. * * *This broadcast message was sent to all bidders on Monday Sep 27, 2010 2:21:46 PM: Requirement 5 is about YFinance main(). This small app has a bug in updating the hash from HTML. Besides fixing that, the main() should be removed, and this small app shall become a menu option inside of the main UI. * * *This broadcast message was sent to all bidders on Monday Sep 27, 2010 7:28:55 PM: Hello, I want to emphasize that the main UI application class name is AnalyzerUI.java. This application takes a long time (several hours) to initialize, so, be patient when trying it out. One bidder has asked the following: "give me the id and password for eoddata and tell me which do you want downloaded from that site that i have to add into the metastock data that should be downloaded by the program". Just to be clear please note that I am not the owner if eoddata.com. I am just a customer. Their website says that they have all this data in Metastock format. It is the contractor's responsibility to figure out the details. * * *This broadcast message was sent to all bidders on Monday Sep 27, 2010 7:34:55 PM: One bidder has asked: "About 3nd requirement. I've researched the [login to view URL] website and found out that to get the data in MetaStock format you need to do the following: To convert data from ASCII format to MetaStock native (binary) format, you can use the Equis Downloader product which can be found on your MetaStock installation CD.([login to view URL]) So, do you have this Downloader program? If yes, so I don't think there will be a problem to get the data in MetaStock format from this site." *** Please note that the answer is NO!!! I do not have any such "MetaStock installation CD". So, you should not try to convert ASCII to Metastock format. Instead, you need to download Metastock format directly. If that's not possible, then we need the discuss the requirement to work directly with whatever format [login to view URL] is actually providing. ***
