Experienced software developer - Ideas wanted!?

Hi Jamie3000,

This idea is slightly different but the software package we use at the moment called MetaStock has it's own language where you can create and write your own systems and scans.

I know of a guy who used this to write his own trading system called the RMO trading system, which was so successful that MetaStock now include this trading system as part of their software. He has done very well out of it as he gets all the commission from his system.

If you would like to test out this MetaStock we do have a free trial offer for 2 months, no obligation to buy at: chartsview.co.uk/online-trading-software/metastock-free-trial

Hope that helps.

Hi Guys,

I have a lot of software development experience and time on my hands at the moment. I'd like to develop some software to aid in the trading of stocks/shares. I have a basic understanding of the market but I wouldn't say I'm experienced enough to know whats missing and where the opportunities are.

I'd like to know what problems you guys face that may be able to be solved through software? If I do produce something of value I'm willing to give it for free to anyone who helps on this thread in anyway.

So far I'm thinking of a system which monitors all tradable companies websites for news posts, twitter accounts for posts, searches social media for trends relating to them and aggregates various news feeds for information about these selected companies. I'm sure this service already exists but I couldn't find anything that really looked amazing by doing a few quick google searches?

Again I'm very open to ideas!?

Thanks
