I'm using Amibroker, it's much much cheaper than Metastock. Metatrader for forex.

Amibroker as well due to the cost difference.

Can you recommend a forex broker? I want to try trading forex. Is technical analysis on forex similar to the one used on stocks? Thanks :)

Where can I purchase Amibroker and how much would it cost me? I must admit that my copy of MetaStock is not "legit".

My forex broker is InterbankFX, so far it's ok. FXCM and OANDA are good brokers too.

Yes, TA in forex and stocks or any other financial markets are about the same. Forex seems fast though.

Amibroker:

Only $199

@yeahbah

Thanks.

By the way, which PL did you use to develop PSEget? Any chance of making it open source so that it can be customized? :P

It's written in Delphi 7 (object pascal).

Open source? No. The code is now spaghetti. Too many code critics out there. :lol:

You can access the PSEGet database if you want to do something else with the data. It uses the SQLite .

Wow! I rarely see people who know how to code in Delphi. The industry is saturated with Java, .Net, and PHP.
