Are you looking for a basic simplistic stock market orders database software program for Linux? You can try out Anetstocks, which was written in Python. You see I needed a way to track my previous stock market orders.
Obviously, major stock market brokers keep a history of your past stock market orders. However, a broker I currently performed trades with did not have a searchable stock market order history, both with their smartphone application or web based interface.
I decided to create a very basic and simplistic stock market orders database software program for Lubuntu Linux. I created it by using Python widgets with GTK 3 support. Also, included was a way to backup and restore a database.
This open source Linux stock market orders database software program uses Structured Query Language Lite version 3. You can both import and export your database using a comma separated value file. Also, this software program includes a search tool.
Finally, I added stock market order entry and deletion capabilities. You can access your previous stock market orders with a scrollable and sortable list view, as well as a sortable search view. You can download this open source Linux stock market orders database software that was written in Python using GIMP Toolkit version 3 interface support below.
