Re: daily data collection

DBC does not keep history on FOREX symbols. All what they do they
transmit the data as is. If for any reason you miss one day or
one hour, thats it. You lost it. You have to find this lost data
from some where else. While on the other hand, Future Source for
example, they keep historical data and also refresh data on daily
basis. If you happen to lose any data they will re-transmit this
data again and you won't lose anything.
