C++ Programming for Stock Trading Software
Below is a modified rendering of the review: private info excluded, innate facts kept.
Introductory information
A few words almost your organisation and personal responsibilities
This project was for me personally, not connected with any organisation.
Desired goal
What issue was the preparer supposed to deal with?
Scopic Software?I hired Scopic to educe a C++ program to link to my investment broker',s trading platform using the broker',s API. This program will collect and show market data and allow me to trade.
What were your objectives for this project?
Lose no data streaming in, historize data, prepare tools to review and study real-time and past data, yield trade orders, send emails and text messages.
Provided solution
What were the reasons for choosing ?
I used a freelancer website and preferred Scopic owing they are a organisation with a team of true professionals geared for manner software educement at a very reasonable cost.
Describe the project and the services they prepared in detail.
I wanted a C++ program that met my exact needs. I myself, a chemical and electrical engineer, have done a good bit of medium to low intricateity programming for years in a number of languages, including C, and can handle to do some single C++ programming, but the bulk of C++ features and functionalities are over me and would demand beseeming a student of C++ to apprehend and be able to use efficiently and powerfully.
I am a consummateionist and want things done the best way, the most strong way, the most efficient way, the most appropriate way to meet the needs. In this project I wanted to work with a programmer in such a way that I would apprehend the possibilities that C++ offers, and apprehend the details and mechanics of the solutions he proposed in such a way that I could then modify the code in the forthcoming, that is, the programmer innately teaches me many things in the order of providing the solution.
Were there any dedicated handlers or teams that you worked with?
1 programmer, and 1 overseer. In accession, they have separate other layers of nation assigned to the project that are there if/when needed, and some of these have been briefly implicated now and then along the way. Probably 95%+ of the hours I have paid have been to the programmer. This is spectacular!
Results achieved
Can you share any information that demonstrates the contact that this project has had on your business?
Scopic has precisely meet all of my needs, handled all of my concerns, and fairly manyly has proposed accessional advantageous functionalities to compliment my requests. There have been a number of times when they vastly surpassed my expectations, due to the programmer',s talents and persistence.
Therefore I am able to do precisely the type of trading I want to do, precisely the way I want to do it. Scopic does not know my strategy or what/how I am trading, but the functionalities and tools they prepare have fully met my needs.
How was project handlement arranged and how powerful was it?
It didn',t take long for the project handler to see that the programmer and I have a good relationship with each other, and adjoin very well and powerfully with each other. We cc her on innately all of our many emails.
It may take us say 50 emails to investigate, study, and arrive at a particular architecture, in complete detail to execute something that is hard, confused, and extrensive, in a consummate way. Many things are much quicker, of order, but we do a lot of interacting and discussing. The project handler will step in from time to time make a high-level contemplation/suggestion, but this has befit less many over time.
I have a high regard for the project handler. She knows when to step and an when not to. She is good almost notifying when my programmer',s availability will change based on other projects he',s working on, and on helping to meet my own schedule needs. The project has flowed smoothly the complete 3.5 years its been going on so far (I have a lot of requests).
What precisely do you attend to be the key specialty of ?
The condition of the work. It',s top notch. Clean, efficient code. When someone knows what they are doing they get it done efficiently, powerfully, and elegantly, straightforwardly. It',s no more or less intricate than it needs to be.
In accession to the running project I am reviewing, which is the biggest and longest one, I have verity been working with Scopic on different trading software projects to connect and trade with other brokers since November, 2013. I have had the same results on see project. They hire talented nation who know how to adjoin. Its forcible.
What should be done better, if there are any desired improvements?
Not veritably.
