noody Posted January 22, 2013 Report Posted January 22, 2013 Hello, few ideas and confused: could someone help me how to get realtime forex data in NT7? I would like to open an account with fxcm but don't know how to get the data to start testing. Any help really appreciated. Thanks in advance Quote
snaiper-x1 Posted January 22, 2013 Report Posted January 22, 2013 to work through the platform with fxcm ninja must sign an additional agreement, they will provide the login and pass, update your account, connect ninja patched and working Quote
noody Posted January 22, 2013 Author Report Posted January 22, 2013 Thanks. Do you use it? Do you suggest others brokers that can be connected to NT7? Quote

Tostao Posted January 22, 2013 Report Posted January 22, 2013 (edited) You can start by opening a demo account with FXCM. Then create the connection (Tools> Account Connections> add> Provider = FXCM) with the username and password provided and ready, you already have the connection to start your test. I personally I have a real micro account with FXCM connected with Ninja (free license @Sim) and from there work my strategy filters. Regards Edited January 22, 2013 by Tostao Quote
omaron Posted January 22, 2013 Report Posted January 22, 2013 You can also open a demo account with MB Trading. You can get real time data but connecting to the feed is a little bit cumbersome (will need to download and install some additional software) Quote
⭐ osijek1289 Posted January 22, 2013 Report Posted January 22, 2013 You need to have decent technical skill, but here is a way to get MT4 realtime data (from a demo account) into NT7 using DDE. Only issue is that you can't receive any historical data via this method, but, as long as your NT data related settings (saving of data) are set properly, I think you should be able to build a library of data. And, I would expect if you could attain minute or even tick data - once you figured out how to import it into NT7 - you could then create historical charts. Again, this is not for everyone. http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/forum/showthread.php?t=55091 dbz1713006267, Hakim314 and tradernate 3 Quote
tradernate Posted January 22, 2013 Report Posted January 22, 2013 Andy, I did the same about 6 months or so a go and no charges. I trade on a DOM using an IB broker for transact...which I like. I opened a free Ninja account with AMP futures ( min $500) and got my data. So far, there is no monthly charges. ⭐ AndyS 1 Quote
noody Posted January 23, 2013 Author Report Posted January 23, 2013 Thank you all! >:D< Concerning: FXCM did you opened an account at h**p://www.forexmicrolot.c0m/, is it working with educated NT7? AMP futures can trade only futures? MB Trading how to connect to NT7? Best Quote
snaiper-x1 Posted January 23, 2013 Report Posted January 23, 2013 if the broker works with Ninja Trader platform you have to look at the platform that it provides, if the list you see that you can work through a ninja online brokerage platform not found what probably connect Ninja Trader is on request,I concluded an additional agreement and I created a new account under the ninja trader and the broker itself translated my deposit into the account established under the ninja, first look at the first page, and then the connection with the broker, if that write in a support and they will connect you I-) http://www.ninjatrader.com/partners Quote
snaiper-x1 Posted January 23, 2013 Report Posted January 23, 2013 (edited) I worked at GAIN Capital/Forex.com platform ninja , here's a list of their trading symbols I-) http://www.forex.com/uk/forex-cfds/overview.html Edited January 23, 2013 by snaiper-x1 Quote
⭐ AndyS Posted January 23, 2013 Report Posted January 23, 2013 Yes only futures, so I use the currency futures data to trade the spot. It is a better data anyway since it has volume.

snaiper-x1 Posted January 23, 2013 Report Posted January 23, 2013 keep account there 3000,shoot 700-1000$,while the problems were not......the opportunity to work through the ninja trader is,to do this, open a separate account of expenses only spread Quote
snaiper-x1 Posted January 23, 2013 Report Posted January 23, 2013 about the reliability of one or another broker already can't say anything,the last bankrupt major brokers have shown that is not вчем you cannot be 100%sure :-? Quote

andre.adamov Posted February 23, 2013 Report Posted February 23, 2013 (edited) Hello AndyS! With this monthly free AMP account do you have acces the level 2 data of the following instruments: 6e / es / fdax / zn level 1 data: eurusd / sp500 Thank you! Edited February 23, 2013 by andre.adamov Quote
Tostao Posted February 25, 2013 Report Posted February 25, 2013 (edited) Tostao, I tried with a FXCM demo, and FXCM Uk demo. on NT educated, multibroker, 7.0.100.07, whit the emu 5.04. and "login fails". I think demo is not work, only real. is correct?. thanks!. I do not know, I do not use NT educated. I use the free version (license @ SIM) and this also works with demo account. another question, with you real account with forexmicrolot (fxcm) you can download replay data with L1 and L2 from more that 60 days ago (example, download data replay for 08/08/2012) ? thanks!. I can not say much because I do not use that functionality, but level 2 is not allowed (I guess for micro accounts) and yes, you can download tick data from more than 60 days ago (level 1), but remember that this has to do day by day. Because it is so tedious, I prefer to use the replay data of Multicharts!! Regards, Edited February 25, 2013 by Tostao Quote
