Location: Netherlands: , Zevenaar | Hello All
I have a very simple question. I can get free realtime stock and future data from a domestic Dutch broker Binck. I would like to implement it in OT. But I have no idea, how? I hope somebody on this forum may advice me.
Thank you for your help.
Best regards

You cannot link the free RT data from Binck with OT
it is only possible with omnidata for us data and DTN IQf or Esignal for european data

Of course in your case I , as the representative of OmniTrader Belgium , DTN IQF and eSignal, would also immediately say that Omni trader doesn't accept data from another Data Supplier. But is the data protocol and the software around it, so complicated that another cheaper or free data supply is impossible. Or is it a protection of the other expensive suppliers. I only need real time data of the FTI and if possible the FDAX
I hope other forum members will respond with a reply that something is possible or an answer about software changes or modules. And if people don't like to put an answer on this forum they may sent me a private mail.
But as good friends Marc and thanks,
Best regards Frans

Location: USA: GA, Lawrenceville | OmniTrader and VisualTrader do not have any provision for any RealTime data vendor other than Nirvana, ESig, and DTN. It is a complex thing to add. This has been discussed many times on the Nirvana forums. There are several reasons for it, and it's very unlikely to change in the future.
OT does in a very limited way support outside EOD data beyond the standard sources, but you have to manually convert the data into MetaStock format first, using a MS routine. Also I believe it is possible to import historical intraday data for Test Profiles (only), but I cannot recall how. That is handled very differently than RT data, internally.

It is Nirvana that develops the RT interface and the compatible link between de data provider and OT
You should as the helpdesk of Nirvana if it is possible, but i don't thinks so.
The only possibility i see is to link it to Esignal to get the FTI and FDAX contract in realtime into OT
Best Regards
