Android App / Mobile Trading Client

My first android app for trading client.
Very happy today, finally i did it, it was long pending task.
I have intention to use QuickFix/J a Fix Protocol based open source library.


For the android app demo purpose (click here to download sample code) i have removed the JMS web service call which can send the order to Fix Protocol based client and just shown the order



                  JMS Web Service                                         Fix Message on TCP/IP To Exchange                            
Mobile Client ===>    JMS Queue  ===> Fix based Client (Broker)   ===>  Fix based Server (Exchange)
                                        QuickFix/J based client Parser
                                     
                                      FROM CLIENT TO BROKER-EXCHANGE DATA FLOW



               Order Status Update (Broadcast-Uni-cast/ TCP-IP Message)
Fix based Server (Exchange)    ===>     Fix based Client (Broker)    ===>   Mobile Client
                                                                                           Order Status Update (may be SMS)


                                      FROM EXCHANGE-BROKER TO CLIENT DATA FLOW


User enters the required Symbol(Script) and other details for Buy/Bid and click on Order button. Android app sends the data to JMS queue which is running on a remote machine at Broker's office and which is based on JMS WebService .

Broker has a Fix protocol based parser running which collects the order from the queue and prepare the Fix based message to Fix protocol based Server, which is located at Stock Exchange.

Once order is confirmed from Exchange the same is sent to Broker and which updates the Client.

Android made the work easy for development, i am not able to find anything much to explain anything in detail. May be have look of the code.

Note: Target audience for this blog and code is only developer and not the android phone user.
