Dave,
Fantastic to see you using Amibroker for trading FX even if it is
somewhat unconventional. If it's working then great.
I'm interested to know a little more on how you actually use Amibroker
with FX if you don't mind the questions.
- Without giving any trade secrets away, what sorts of overall functions
of Amibroker do you employ that aren't present in Metatrader?
- What edge do you think it's giving you ?
- What does Amibroker need to help your present FX situation ?
- Have you done any automatic FX stuff in Amibroker ?
Oh and I agree with you that Oanda has definitely better qualities than
IB when it comes to Forex.
Cheers and thanks for any answers. I'm heartened to see Amibroker users
using it with currency trading. Anyone wanna chime in on experiences
with FX and Amibroker, please do.
Martin
