Re: [JavaTraders] Charting for Technical Analysis

Believe me, I've looked. There is no such thing out there. If there was I'd have used it. In terms of OSS there's basically a vast wasteland in terms of charting IN GENERAL for Java. There's JFreeChart, which is a pretty good general charting package, but its design doesn't lend itself too well to real-time charting and it doesn't have any specific support for financial charting. It will do candlesticks and you can draw a decent chart with it, but you're on your own as far as any finance specific functionality. You could certainly roll something with that and say ta-lib, but you'll have to write a chunk of code (and you could probably script the whole thing, though I'm not exactly sure what you mean by a 'scripted' indicator).

Thanks for the response

However, what I truly need is a full-featured java-based financial charting solution to use as a charting component within a custom trading platform I am designing/developing
full-featured here means supporting custom indicators and ideally "scripted' indicators
the more customizable/extensible the better

Any ideas?

ThinkorSwim is probably the best commercially available java based chart/trading platform. It requires account with TDAmeritrade.

For a standalone application (Swing, no Applets)
