While the Nest auto trading api has been available for some time, it really came to attention with GDFL launching their AmiBroker Trading Plugin in August / Sep 2012. So it can be imagined that the API was ready at least 3 month prior to that; though the rumblings find mention much earlier in 2012, for example by GTji.
At that time of the GDFL launch, the Nest Plus version was at 1.3
The API was tied up with Nest Trader earlier, and not available with NOW. With Zerodha offering Nest / Zerodha Trader to users, and Omnesys offering the Starter Pack free within Nest Plus, it was easier for most of us to take a closer look at it.
I first took a look at it in Oct 2012. Thought of putting in a 6 month subscription and deposited the money. Unfortunately, the cost at the Omneysys site was higher than that mentioned in Plus plugin (see image below), and also missed the 11+% tax. When trying to put in more money, both the payment gateways were timing out, and settled for a one month subscription. Lucky me. For there was nothing much to say beyond two posts.
One of these days, I will try to get my subscription money back on the ground of false claims about the product. Against me will be the fact that Omneysys never made any substantial technical claims. (On the other hand, maybe, one should let it pass -- they have been good enough to provide the free Starter Pack; and God knows that I've overused it.) In fact, it is the very absence of saying anything that got a request for documentation recently.
The aim to this thread is a) add to this new forum section in TJ, and b) take a deeper look at the auto-trading API in Plus.
