Amibroker with IB & MetaTrader feeds

Discussion in 'Trading Software' started by Trader KGB, May 22, 2007.

  1. I'm looking into switching from my current arrangement (QuoteTracker + MetaTrader4) to the Amibroker platform. I use IB's feed for QuoteTracker, but rely upon MT4 for data that's not provided by IB (specifically the USDX and NZD cross rates).

    My question is, can Amibroker be setup to receive data from both IB and MT4 simultaneously? I know it works with both feeds independently, but just wanted to confirm whether it will operate with both simultaneously. Thanks.

    I have 2 AB databases, one for IB realtime and another for Yahoo EOD. I have had both work at the same time but requires 2 instances of AB running. Try the question at their forum, maybe more help;

    You can use QuoteTrader to run on multiple brokers and datafeeds at the same time in one application. It currently support 7 feeds including IB, MB, Ameritrade.

    I don't know anything about the Metatrader data feed, do they have an API?

    QuoteTrader is FREE, a product of Quote.com.
