Re: [Announce] Stockona - Another google finance client
 
Congrats on your app.

To give you some feedback, for me the main thing wrong with MaeMoney, and why I just open the browser and load a google spreadsheet instead is that it doesnt provide enough information on one screen, and the wrong info.

I like to see a concise list of my stocks as follows:

Ticker code|Price|Bid|Ask|%tage change|Book cost of my position|Market value of my position|%tage profit or loss of my position

For me that is the vital info, which I display on one line per share, in a small font. And a summary line of my overall portfolio.

Really the market cap, pe ratio etc, is superfluous info, and the big fonts and multiple lines per share a waste of screen estate, especially when you are tracking say 50 shares.

Cheers,
Menno

Thanks for the suggestion, I will think about it. The bid/ask price are not available from the feeds nor query result so I'm afraid that's not doable. I'd like to have those info as well.
The others should be fine, and the app already stores some of the information I just need to think of a better way to push them into the view list.

BTW, I agree that market share and pe ratio are irrelevant in quote view. They should be shown in a "more info" view. I put it there, well, just because MaeMoney did so : p

Re: [Announce] Stockona - Another google finance client
 
See screenshot for the feature requested by menno. I added that and released 0.0.3 to forum nokia project page. The 'View' button toggles between the two views. There is an option to set the default view to either mode.

By the way, I found Google finance API not returning the cost basis as documented. For now I calculated the cost myself using the available info, so the number can be off a bit. To make this clear, I add 'Est' to the cost to remind you that the number is an estimation.

Re: [Announce] Stockona - Another google finance client
 
Bump the thread for the new release, 0.0.5.
I added detailed quote view & news view.
In the detailed quote view, the app shows all the info it pulled from Google, plus it can display the price/volume chart from Yahoo Finance.
The news view displays relevant news for the stock from the feed of Google Finance. I thought about the one from Yahoo but it doesn't have news excerpt available so I didn't use it.

Hope the few of you using it like it :)

The client is pretty much feature complete :p (QML is awesome...)
I will work on error handling/full screen support for maemo for the next release..

Re: [Announce] Stockona - Google finance client (feature-complete release)
 
Great first time project Sony123. I like your app a lot, especially since I use Google Finance to monitor a few stocks I trade on.

Going forward, if you need a someone to test your Stockona, I would be happy to help out.

Some suggestions after using Stockona:
  1. A better icon for the desktop. ;)
  2. I can see my quotes but they are showing in dollars ($) and not pounds (£). Is there a way it can recognize my location from my google log in and then show the correct currency?
  3. Last Prices are currently being showed incorrectly. e.g. $4.30 should be £0.43 (pence).
  4. The ability to maximise the screen would be great.
  5. On the page that shows graphs, there is dead space in the top middle of the screen. If you moved some detail (from the top right hand corner) into this space, you could move everything up a bit, giving more detail to the map. At present it feels like I can only use half the screen.
  6. The back arrow could appear in the dead space at the top middle of the screen.

The above is just for Horizontal Mode... sorry, I should have clarified that more. I've just tested Portrait Mode and WOW! - Very very nice!

But great app. I like it a lot. Are you making improvements?

First of all, thanks for your feedback. My response as follow:
1. Icon: I will try creating one with the next release....
2. Dollar sign: I will need to study this, I haven't thought about it really. I know MaemMoney has region setting but I thought it just changed the language... I will take a second look. Also, it will be helpful if you can provide me an example of the stock symbol you have problem with.
3. Last price: Oops... I'll check that.
4. Full screen: Hopefully I get it done in the next release
5. Horizontal layout: Yes, I didn't care too much about horizontal mode in development. The price box takes too much area... I will make it smaller and maybe experiment with an optimized horizontal layout to better utilize the screen space.

Improvements... I have got the features that I originally thought out to do, so feature-wise I don't really know (let me know yours...). For non-feature improvement, I plan to work on UX, code optimization (get rid of some dirty patches), and error handling. Especially the latter one so the user knows an error occurred instead of staring at a blank screen not knowing wondering wtf went wrong.

Hi,

Below I have attached the screenshot showing the $ sign. I was thinking perhaps just remove it and it will be right. With the dollar sign there, it looks like the price for BLNX is one hundred and thirty five dollars and fourty six cents, when in actual fact it is one hundred thirty five pence.

Thanks again for helping me out refining the app.
Yes following your suggestion, I've taken out the $ sign in the new version so it's less confusing. I originally planned to release a version on Tuesday but I got some hiccups when running the app on device so the release was delayed. So far I have added some error handling and polished the apps here and there. Also I found out that Yahoo has a live quote as well and more over it has real-time Ask/Bid information!! But it's in CSV format and I need to parse it separately = more work to do.

I will release a version maybe the coming weekend. If not, I will upload a test build to forum nokia and would appreciate if you can test it, thanks in advance.

Btw a few preview on what to come:
1) Full screen!
2) No more annoying rotating busy indicator sticking in the middle of the screen. Moved to title bar.
3) Some kind of error handling.

EDIT:
4) Wait, there's more.... (woohoo!) Greatly-improved portrait detailed quote view!

sony123 2011-06-10 05:48
Re: [Announce] Stockona - Google/Yahoo finance client
 
A new big release, 0.0.6!

What's new?
1) Full screen mode plus some performance trick... the UI should feel smoother. (But the trick introduces a touch focus bug in setting menu...)
2) Real-time ask/Bid price info now available thanks to Yahoo!
3) Totally re-worked horizontal detail quote view.
4) Primitive error handling.... the app now shows error messages. Only RSS feed unavailable and login error message is sticky, the others (should) go away after 3 seconds. If you want it disappear, just click it.

Hope you enjoy it!

Re: [Announce] Stockona - Google/Yahoo finance client (Icon designer needed)
 
Thanks to the help from community developers, I finally pushed the package into extra-devel! You can download it from there afterwards.

The latest version is 0.0.7, which fixed the setting focus bug.

sony123 2011-06-12 22:36
Re: [Announce] Stockona - Google/Yahoo finance client (Icon designer needed)
 
A bump in version number (0.0.8) to include the icon that I created.

I will work on refining the error dialog, some fine tuning of the codes, and play around with animation in the next release. Any suggestion on what extra feature you'd like to see? Otherwise, longer-term I will try integrating WebKit view so user could read the news within the client. I would also love to use the app to learn Qt (maybe re-implement some of the logics in Qt).

Re: [Announce] Stockona - Google/Yahoo finance stock quote client (now with icon!)
 
A really great update... Thanks Sony123, it's looking brilliant. It's one of my most used applications on a day to day basis. I like the horizontal view now. You have made the most of the dead space. Looks really good.

You might have a reason for this next "possible bug". The CostEst and Value shows a "k" value.

Take LON:BLNX as an example, in Google Finance it looks like this:
http://www.mynokian900.com/wp-conten...4/blinkx-x.jpg
where as in Stockona it looks likes this.
http://www.mynokian900.com/wp-conten...614-190455.png
The "k" makes it look like a thousand (I know it's a thousand pence or cents), but it would be better if it said CostEst = 640 and Value = 588.

Is there a reason why you have left out 1d, 5d, 1m graph range? The graph doesn't always work for me. It says "Chart not available".

How do you go full screen mode?

1) This should be fixed in the next release, 0.0.9. The app will be using the data directly from google atom feed so the cost and value are now directly displayed without internal formatting.
2) The 1d/5d/1m did not work for me. Yahoo always returned page not found. I noticed the chart data are not available for some indexes. So in short, it's a limitation from Yahoo.
3) Ah... it is by default in full screen. Well I understand you take full-screen as in microb. Well... I thought about hiding the title bar when not in used and making it available by swiping down or touching the top edge of the screen. Maybe I will re-visit it later.

Thanks again for your valuable feedback. Next release will mainly be bug fixes, javascript core and error handling improvement.

Re: [Announce] Stockona - Google/Yahoo finance stock quote client (now with icon!)
 
An update (0.0.10) is pushed to extra-devel.... it was mainly error handling improvement, bug fixes and javascript/qml logic change to make the starting sequence (hopefully) better. There was another build, 0.0.9, that wasn't working well. Sorry I didn't test it thoroughly enough.

Please give 0.0.10 a try, thanks!

Looks good Sony123. Cost and Values look correct now!

You mentioned this is an app for Yahoo or Google Finance.
Question: Do you allow either or to be logged in?

On the login screen would it be possible to have a "sign in" button because I noticed when I tried logging in as another account, there was no sure way of knowing if it had accepted the the new username and password?

Question: When dothe Ask and Bid values appear or do I have to be logged in as Yahoo account?

sony123 2011-06-15 17:34
Re: [Announce] Stockona - Google/Yahoo finance stock quote client (now with icon!)
 
1) For the Yahoo Finance part.... well, you got me. The app is not really a yahoo finance client, it just uses information from Yahoo. But for the limited time I tried, I couldn't find an explicit way to retrieve portfolio data from Yahoo. I am not sure if it can be done..., but I do find YQL might be the way to go. I will change the title to make it clear : p
2) That's a good idea. The app currently automatically re-sign in if the username or pwd changed. That indeed can be confusing. I will add signin and signout buttons.
3) No, those info should be displayed by default, but unfortunately for (some) mutual funds and indexes, Yahoo returns nothing for the ask/bid price. In short, if you still see '-' after a couple of refreshes, it means the data are not available from Yahoo.

Re: [Announce] Stockona - Google finance stock quote client
 
Somewhere on your Stockona you should have a Paypal Donate button ;)

I stupidly tried to login as my Yahoo Finance account and it didn't work, so then I tried logging back into Google, but it was not allowing me. I typed in my username and password and pressed enter only to see "API returned 403 Forbidden" error, but after I pressed the back button it flashed (as in the screen flickered) and then loaded my portfolio... :-) I guess without knowing or without pressing a LOGIN button it's hit and miss.

Donation is welcomed but not at the top of my mind :) I will set it up sometime.

Sorry for tricking you into thinking the app can pull yahoo portfolio ! But what you saw was interesting... if the app only does login after you press the back button in setting menu..... so the 403 Forbidden message could be coming from the earlier http request using yahoo account info. I have yet to think of a better way to handle this, since the http request thread is asynchronous by nature in QML. Just remember you can always suppress the error message by clicking it :p

Stockona

Short description:
Stockona is currently a google/yahoo finance client in QML for Maemo/Meego. It pulls your portfolios from google finance and shows the quotes for one of the portfolio in a clean interface. Yahoo finance currently provides the ask/bid price info and the chart.

The app has been packaged to Maemo extra-devel and you can get it from there. I will promote it to testing once allowed.

Current Features
  • Quote:
    • Simple view: The quote info can be displayed in two formats: Portfolio-based or quote-based.
    • Detail view: Display more detailed info, plus display history price/volume chart from Yahoo Finance
  • News: Accessed from detailed quote view. Display relevant news feed from Google Finance.
  • Setting: Select Portfolio, change refresh interval, set default view mode

** Please install "QtQuick 1.0 compatible" package before installing the app.

You can find more info as well as file bug/download deb/view source code from forum nokia project page:
http://projects.forum.nokia.com/stockona

Changelog:
0.0.10: Bug fixes (Forum Nokia ticket #3-5) + logic improvement. 0.0.9: Bad build, logic improvement not working well.....
0.0.8: Add icon
0.0.7: Package for Maemo extra-devel. Fixed setting menu focus bug.
0.0.6: Add full-screen + horizontal detailed quote view layout change + ask/bid price info + primitive error handling

My gripe with MaeMoney, and the reason I always just log into google finance in the web browser is that it can´t show me a single summary page showing all my portfolios, with these details for each:
- The name of my portfolios
- The total balance
- Net gain / Net loss
- Days return
- Overall return

As I´m not a day-day trader I´m not only interested in the balance of each fund in the portfolio, but more with the portfolio itself as a whole.

Can Stockona do this? If not is that possible?

That's the website version and I'm afraid I can't directly use it.

The two ways I found to retrieve Yahoo quote info, one is in CSV, the other is through YQL. Maybe after logging in they will return portfolio-related data. I will give it a try.

1) Not currently, it's in a separate menu.
2) Yes, stockona shows total value.
3) Yes and no, stockona only shows gain percentage.
4) No, I didn't include this, but the info is readily available.
5) Yes and no, Stockona shows YTD return.

I like #4 and I had wanted to implement 1) to the title bar. Let me add it to the todo list.

For 3), you'd like to see gain/loss in dollar right?
For 5), is YTD return good enough?

Thanks for reporting this, I will take a look and see what happened. If I can I will add the solution in the new release I just completed and hopefully release tmr.

EDIT: Turned out I didn't include the exchange info in the query sending to google server. I have tried and it pulled the correct data after I added the exchange. So the issue will be fixed in the next release.

This turns out a litter trickier due to the difference in Yahoo and Google. This only affects the ask/bid pricing info.

Currently I use a lookup-table way and only converted the exchanges that I know Yahoo provides ask/bid pricing info. The stock exchanges I have now are:

Code:
// North America
NASDAQ/NYSE/AMEX
TSX/TSXV
OTC BB

// Euro
LONDON

// Asia
TAIWAN
HONG KONG
CHINA - SHANGHAI/SHENZHEN
KOREA
Unfortunately, Yahoo doesn't provide ask/bid pricing info for ASX so I didn't include it. If your exchange is missing, could you kindly first check if the ask/bid info is available on Yahoo, then I can add it into the table.

Re: [Announce] Stockona - Google finance stock quote client
 
Another release bringing many tweaks:

- Slight tweak of portfolio information, add day gain/gain in $ and use total return instead of YTD.
- Improve portfolio menu - add symbol count and excerpt.
- Add login/logout button and 'About' page to setting menu.
- Title bar can toggle between 'stockona' and portfolio name.
- Fix state transition issue.

There is also one easter egg hidden in the app... I tried toying with an idea but found it didn't work well on N900. As a result, I didn't pursue further but left the code in.

Hint: Gesture control.

Sorry I missed your question.... I just checked and:
1) Google finance doesn't have the symbol.
2) The only obvious thing gold-related is GLD.
So since there is no way to add this in Google finance portfolio, the app cannot follow it.

The only way to solve this is by adding the ability to create local portfolio and switching to Yahoo's feed. The former is probably what I will *try* to do next.

Re: [Announce] Stockona - Google finance stock quote client
 
Hi all, a maintenance release, 0.1.0 has just been pushed to extras-devel. In the release, I fixed the portfolio name toggling in the title bar. Now the portfolio name is more reliably shown. Also I did some minor tweaks to the codes and there are no longer error console messages at startup.

Also, regarding the hidden feature of the title bar.... well, swiping down reveals the portfolio shortcut, where you can click to directly access the portfolio selection view. I could make it such that swiping down directly go into portfolio selection view, but after knowing N9's UX design, I will most likely remove this (not-working-so-well) feature.

The version number has been bumped to 0.1.0 because I feel for the current feature Stockona is relatively stable. I plan to work on local portfolio storage/creation so I can do more flexible things. As for yahoo portfolio support, unfortunately I have yet to found a way. I will keep looking.

Oh and btw since N9 uses AMOLED I will probably have to make a darker scheme...

I plan to do it, but I'm still scoping how to implement and what tool I need, since Qt is new to me. Don't expect to see this feature soon :p

Hi Sony123 (William),

I saw an update recently on my Nokia N900 but didn't think to look into the menu. Then I saw it. Login / Logout buttons and now just seen your credits screen.

Wow! And it is faster.

You have created an awesome application. Something to be very proud of.

Well done.

Mike

Well done for creating a really useful app. Just one question really, Is there any way for it to remember your login information or do you need to re-enter it everytime you start the app?

A new release (0.1.1) has been pushed to extras-devel to fix the login bug yoda found. I also make logout action immediate.

Thanks again to all for helping me iron out the bugs!

Hi Sony123,

I have spotted a problem... the graph is not matched to the stock. I see you are getting the graph data from Yahoo, and possibly the stock data from Google.

The prices for LON:VOG (Victoria Oil & Gas) on the left are correct, but not the graph which is showing (Voyager Oil & Gas).

Ok I will fix this in the next release.
It's a quick fix, I will add the symbol conversion call where I compose the yahoo chart link.

Thanks for reporting!
