wxStocks v2.0: Python 3, ZODB, and XBRL support
New version!!! Woot, i finally got XBRL support working. Say goodbye to your free harddrive space as your database grows RAPIDLY! Throw a party for you and your friends as we all lose money in the markets together!
wxStocks v1.5.2 (beta) updatable (fixed x2) and cryptography release
wxStocks v1.5.2 (beta) updatable (fixed x2) and cryptography release
Firstly, these two release happened so close together, i've just made them one release. The 1.4 update was the Update update, as i've added an updater, so you don't have to start over when an new version is released. Simply download the new version, and run the updater in your home folder, and select the new folder and all your functional files will be updated to the new release! And totally without affecting your data! I think, probably.
Secondly, Fernet!!! (I sipped on some while writing the code). I've finally got rid of the mess that was pyCrypto + simplecrypt. I've had lots of problems with it sometimes loading, and sometimes corrupting files on save. It didn't work very well. It has been replaced by the cryptography library, namely, cryptography.fernet. The key generation is in the wxStocks.py library, and is generated via your password, and your bcrypt salt. This is all mostly secure, but using the bcrypt salt to generate the key, and having the key remain in the config file while running may be a security issue for some, but it should provide a lot of protection if your computer is lost or stolen.
On the downside, the ability to change the number of portfolios is temporarily gone, as i've been rebuilding the way portfolios work (a huge pain). Still, i think it all works better! Thanks for the support!

wxStocks v1.3 (beta 4) true cross-platform release
I finally went in and changed all the gui items around so that it's truely a cross-platformer. Let me know if your gui looks shitty or weird and i'll try and help you. Now if you'll excuse me, i have to actually get back to the investing thing and stop all this working on my little investing framework.
This program is now in beta, but i'm still happy to accept any pull requests or suggestions if you want to help out.

wxStocks is a investment analysis program that could help teach you to scrape, screen, sort, and prepare a portfolio for learning about buying and selling equities.
Built using wx as its framework (specifically wxPython3.0-osx-cocoa-py2.7), and pyql as its scraping tool.
Requirements: Python 2.X, wxPython, NumPy
Nonessential but recommended: PyCrypto, simplecrypt, xlrd

Installation:
Python:
If you are running a mac or linux Python 2.X. To check, open your terminal and just type "python", which should lead to a prompt that looks like ">>>". You can then quit by typing "quit()". If that doesn't work, go here: https://www.python.org/downloads/
If you are running windows, go here and install python 2.X: https://www.python.org/downloads/
wxPython:
http://www.wxpython.org/download.php
Note: I built this using the cocoa build for OSX. I should work on all other builds though, but i've heard some of my friends are having problems while using ipython. Not sure what to do if you're having issue, this is a tough one.
Numpy:
