[amibroker] Re: FXCM data

Rama,
The last time I check with FXCM was abour a year ago, they would not 
give their data away for free at that time.
How does Tradestation 2000i or Hypertrader connect to FXCM?  If you 
can find out how they do it, then we can probably connect Amibroker 
to it in the same way.
The problem with DDE is that it will only collect real time data, 
you cannot bring in history.  I used FX-trek to get realtime data 
and cut and paste to get history(which was only about 1000 bars - 
not very long if you are looking at 1 min data)
If you find out something new, please let me know.
