Some words: This repo started off as a project for my own needs - there were little to no open source tools about orderflow charting and visualization given how specific it is. I am losing motivation on expanding/optimizing this project because coding up desktop GUI using PyQt-related tools feels crazy, especially when comopared to the development experience in JS-ecosystem - I don't really love JavaScript but given how available the community is, it is a lot easier to code up things there. Plus, desktop GUIs feel really old. At the time of writing, I feel more excited to code up webapps/desktop apps with something else. Just not graphic dev with Python. Nevertheless, I will try to keep developing on this project from time to time 😗.
Orderflow chart desktop GUI using Finplot and PyQtGraph.
Enviornment:
- Tested with Python3.9+
- Updated to PyQt6
The plotting is largely based on the original Finplot library, with slight modification in order to allow for orderflow plotting. The whole package source code of his repo is included in this repo (./finplotter/finplot_library) because this repo modifies the original package in a hacky way. In the future, this project will be refactored in a way that the inclusion of Finplot package would be unnecessary. Nevertheless in the mean time, it is advised to look into the package itself for further customization.
