This trading item allows you to follow picks (and download historical data of these picks) of any Wikinancial member. Simply select the player name, open the downloader and type its name in the "Player" field. You can add one or several players. The downloader will create a custom historical database that has the following fields: Player or the member name, Price at which the stock was bought or sold, Trade type or whether the trade was long or short. It will then get RSS data for each player, associate picks data to the appropriate stocks and insert the trade/pick details in the custom database, whose name is "wikinancial".
Once the data is stored in the database you can access it using QuantShare or .Net language.
Here is an example of a trading rule that returns 1 on bars where the player "bubba" has picked the analyzed stock.
rule = GetDataStringCount("wikinancial", "player", "bubba") == 1;
