Hi there, I realize that you do not yet support Forex Trading with MBT - but is there a way to use MBT's Forex data feed in NT6?

Perhaps set it up as an external data feed?

I don't mind programming - just need guidance.

Thanks!

You could code your own program interfacing MBT navigator, retrieving forex data and trigger the NT ATI (I recommend the DLL methods and not the COM interface).

That's perfect. Could you point me in the right direction regarding the NT ATI dll interface?

Thanks!

Is there any particular reason why you recommend the DLL methods over the COM interface?

We experienced a lot of trouble related to COM registration but close on none by using the DLL interface.
