Hello Herbert,
Sorry for my delay !
You don’t need to open an account with them, you can
also delete the old demo account every month and start a new demo account.
This works fine. I also prefer others, like fxcm.com
Here is the way I do:
<font
size=2 face=Arial><span
>1)<span
> <font
size=2 face=Arial>I have
created a profile in metatrader with my 8 favorite pairs
<font
size=2 face=Arial><span
>2)<span
> <font
size=2 face=Arial>Than I have
created a macro with macro express http://www.macros.com/
<font
size=2 face=Arial><span
>3)<span
> <font
size=2 face=Arial>This macro
selects step by step every window and clicks on the save button, goes to
amibroker and imports the quotes.
I have also created a macro that only exports one pair for
quick import.
You can try or do the same also manually !
Just click in metatrader on the save button, go to
amibroker, create the format with the import wizard, and import the history.
Metatrader has a very long history. Really nice.
They provide about 14 months of a 1 hour chart !
During the macro process you can’t do other things,
but the process takes about 1-2 minutes for 8 pairs on my machine.
Therefore it is not as comfortable as a “real”
realtime data provider.
But anyway the data quality is much better than esignal and
it is absolutely free.
Tell me if you need the macros to use it.
Best regards,
Thomas

Hello Thomas,
<span

Could you please explain how you download Forex data from
Metatrader? Didn't you open an account with them?
<span

Thanks
Herbert

<span

<span

<span
>1. Are you intraday Forex?
Do you think it's possible to make $ on
<span
>Forex if you don't closely
watch your monitor, i.e. trade with
<span
>traditional intraday-type
technical approaches? (I'm asking because
<span
>I've got a full time job
and can't watch a monitor all day.)
<span
>
<span
>2. Why did you go with
eSignal? Is it expensive for basic
<span
>hourly/daily Forex quotes?
