01:21:23 <cfoch> Hello. I know this is not the right place to ask, but I would like to get some idea about how to make a Forex Chart app. Where can I get data from (minute to minute)?
01:21:35 <cfoch> I saw there are no apps in GTK
01:24:44 <MechtiIde> cfoch, for which country
01:25:02 <MechtiIde> something like the European Central Bank
01:25:49 <cfoch> I wonder if it is possible to do something like https://www.tradingview.com/chart/?symbol=EURUSD in real time
01:26:43 <cfoch> Mechtilde: for the most important currencies, for stocks and commodities also. IDK where to get the data.
01:28:18 <MechtiIde> IDK?
01:29:01 <cfoch> I don't know where to get the data from.
01:29:39 <MechtiIde> something like the European Central Bank
01:29:51 <MechtiIde> I think they publish such data
01:31:13 <kimmo> I think ECB only publishes data at the end of each day
01:32:36 <MechtiIde> or at the stock exchange
01:32:43 <kimmo> http://www.oanda.com/currency/live-exchange-rates/
01:35:47 <cfoch> I found this API
01:35:53 <cfoch> https://www.tradingview.com/HTML5-stock-forex-bitcoin-charting-library/
01:36:15 <cfoch> But what I don't like too much is that I need to fill a form to ask for it.
01:36:51 <cfoch> It makes sense though these kind of things are not free.
01:36:57 <cfoch> I think.
01:39:10 <cfoch> I think what I need is an API
01:39:16 <cfoch> http://tradestation.github.io/webapi-docs/en/getting-started/overview/

17:47:56 <NewFish> I'm thinking about switching from Windows to uBuntu. Will I be able to open the Windows gnucash datafile in the uBuntu version? Anything special I have to do to make it work? (Sorry if this is documented somewhere, I looked but couldn't find)
17:56:55 <gjanssens> NewFish: yes, you will be able to. The file format is fully compatible between OS's
17:57:22 <gjanssens> If you had any saved reports you may want to copy the .gnucash directory from your home directory as well
17:57:31 <gjanssens> It stores all metadata used by gnucash
17:58:06 <gjanssens> And lastly, if you changed some preferences, you should go over them again in ubuntu's gnucash. These are not part of your data file
17:58:23 <gjanssens> They are stored in the Windows Registry and are difficult to copy
17:58:41 <gjanssens> (I'm off to bed now)
17:58:43 <gjanssens> Good luck !
