#### Professional stock charting desktop application

AptiStockX is a local-first desktop stock charting and portfolio research application for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It is the modern continuation of AptiStock, first released in 2005.
AptiStockX focuses on native desktop charting, local chart files, local workspaces, watchlists, downloaded market data, provider-separated data workflows, technical indicators, drawing tools, multi-monitor charting, and optional AI-assisted chart review.
Basic is free for core charting workflows. Pro is a paid license that unlocks deeper charting workflows, more workspace flexibility, multi-monitor features, advanced studies, intraday workflows where provider data allows, and AI Assistant features.
AptiStockX is research and charting software for self-directed traders and researchers. It is not a broker, investment adviser, financial adviser, market-data vendor, or trade execution service.

## Enable snaps on Arch Linux and install AptiStockX

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

On Arch Linux, snap can be installed from the [Arch User Repository (AUR).](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/snapd/)
The [manual build process](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Installing_packages) is the Arch-supported
install method for AUR packages, and you’ll need the [prerequisites](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Prerequisites)
installed before you can install any AUR package. You can then install snap with the following:

```
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/snapd.git
cd snapd
makepkg -si
```

Once installed, the *systemd* unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:

```
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
```

If [AppArmor](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/AppArmor) is enabled in your system, enable the service which loads AppArmor profiles for snaps:

```
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor.service
```

To enable *classic* snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between `/var/lib/snapd/snap` and `/snap`:

```
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
```

Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
