RE: [amibroker] Forex data via GFT?

You would have to export it from GFT and the import it into AB, which I did
for awhile. However, GFT has a limit of how much data they provide as
history (at least when I had my account with them) of 3 days. This is very
impractical because once you go past 3 days without manually collecting the
data, you will have gaps. I think if you have a huge account with them, you
can get more data. I also believe if you talk to your rep, they can get you
a one time download of historical data (this still doesn't solve them only
providing 3 days of historical data). There is another alternative, but it
will cost some money. The latest version of eSignal allows you to select
specific FOREX broker feeds. GFT is one of them. I'm not sure how much
history they provide, but I think it's at least 30 days. You could use the
eSignal plug-in for AB, and you would have your data. Plus you could use AB
as your charting & analysis program and just use the Dealbook Platform to
place orders on.
