New Bitcoin Chart Widget for Android

[cousinHub]

Hello everyone,

Let me quickly introduce my new widget: it allows to display a chart of your favorite bitcoins directly on your homescreen :

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cousinHub.Bitcoin

* One click to refresh or flip to the next timeframe (select them one by one in the settings).
** Double click to enter into the settings.
*** Three clicks will take you to the awesome StockTwits #bitcoin stream ($BCOIN)

 

I'm joining this forum to get some feedback from users / beta testers. It should help me improve the widget further. Thank you !

It's very easy to use :

STEP 1.) Select one of the major exchange:

mtgoxUSD
bitstampUSD
btceUSD
localbtcUSD
mtgoxEUR
btcdeEUR
mtgoxJPY
mtgoxGBP
localbtcGBP
mtgoxCHF
btcnCNY
anxhkHKD
bitcurexPLN
virtexCAD

STEP 2.) Select your preferred chart type:

Candlestick
Closing line
Median Price
OHLC (Open-High-Low-Close)
Typical Price
Weighted Close

STEP 3.) Do you want to see price bands added to the charts ?

Bollinger Band ?
Donchian Channel ?
SMA 20 +/-10% (SMA = Simpel Moving Average)

STEP 4.) Select a few timeframes ....

1 day
2 days
5 days
10 days
1 month
2 months
3 months
4 months
5 months
6 months
1 year
2 years
4 years
8 years
All Data available

=> every click on the widget will 'cycle through' the choosen timeframes ...

STEP 5.) Click on OK !!


It's very easy, isn't it ? 

PS: If click on "More Options" : you can also add 2 moving averages (Simple, Exponential, Triangular, Weighted) using 4 periods (10, 25, 50, 200).
You have the option to display Volumes bars or not. Option to force the scaling method (normal, log, percent or timeframe dependant), option to display Parabolic SAR on charts.

PS2 : You can put this widget on your lock screen !

Feel free to send me feedback !

COOL! Keep Up this work!
I downloaded this widget its so cool! but need fix some bugs 

[cousinHub]

Thanks for the feedback @TheNewAnon135246

bitcoincharts.com (source for the charts) does not have a "Time Period" lower than "1 Day". So you mean that you would like to use 1-min or 5-min bars instead of the default "15-min" I guess ? Is that it ?

About the bug you described, I can't retrace it. Could you please explain exactly what you are doing?

So you select only "1 Day" and when you change the Chart Type from "OHLC" to "Median Price" for example, what happens ?
On my tablet everything is running fine, so I don't see where the bug is ?

Thanks for your help.

thanks @kaowe. Did you find another bug ? please describe it and I'll try to fix it !

Downloading and testing! Thanks for your effort, looks pretty cool already

[cousinHub]

Thanks @thedue 

I published a new version y'day night. Please make sure to update to this latest version as I corrected a minor bug.

Have a great day,

cousinHub

Question to everyone : Would you like me to eventually add a few technical indicators to the charts, as an option. Would/Do you use these in fact ?
Take a look at the list on http://bitcoincharts.com/charts/mtgoxUSD under "Technical Indicators" :

-Accumulation/Distribution
-MACD
-Momentum
-Money Flow Index
-RSI
etc...

What would be your top 3 in this list, if any ?

[cousinHub]

thank you everyone for your support. It looks like this widget is meeting its public 

400 downloads in 5 days is quite a lot for a new widget, so thank you for taking the time to test it

3 unhappy people so far, mainly because bitcoincharts.com was down a few hours and the charts were not loading up correctly.

I leave you with the following video of the first Bitcoin ATM (even if I guess you've seen it already in other posts within this forum)

Wow, thanks! Will the be an ios version coming out anytime soon?

[cousinHub]

Now sorry @nahtnam. I'm focusing on my expertise, which is 100% Android.

But I'm sure there will be members in this forum with some iOS expertise who could easily replicate this Android widget for iOS, isn't it ?

I think there are some applications that convert android apps to iOS apps but I don't think they work too well...

Yes indeed there are some. But they don't work quite well, and certainly not for a widget, which is more 'complex'.
Sorry but I really can't help on iOS.

Ok, but please do let me know if you ever do find an ios dev...

[cousinHub]

I will for sure.

Could I ask you please to add my widget to the following list / thread ?

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=136158.0

(as I'm still a newbie in this forum I can't post there yet).

Thanks 

[nahtnam]

I will for sure.

Done. Please let me know if you need any more help. BTW I have a android phone and an iPhone, I just much prefer the iPhone over the android. Maybe I'll boot up my old phone to test this out!

[cousinHub]

just a big THANK YOU for your help 

Let's get our bitcoins back above $1000 now 

[cousinHub]

Hi everyone,

I just crossed the 1.000 downloads  in such a short period of time (roughly ~10 days) that I want to thank this forum / community for its great support !

So during the next 24 hours, I'll offer the PRO version of the widget for 0.50 EUR only * (unlimited version with 2 moving averages, Option to display Volumes bars or not. Option to force the scaling method, option to display Parabolic SAR on charts).

If you just purchase it at €1.99, send me an email and I'll refund it to you 

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cousinHub.Bitcoin_PRO


* €0.50 is the minimal price point that I can input in Google Play
