Live Price Data

 

I'm trying to do some data analysis for EUR/USD.  Is there a way I can get live EUR/USD price data programmatically, ideally with some traditional trading indicator?  Originally I use Streamster (http://www.agea.com) to have a .NET program plugged into it and write the data to a database table, but in order to do that I would need a Windows machine running all the time.  Currently all my stuffs are hosted on Amazon EC2 and a hosted Windows is kinda expensive to me.

Any recommendations?  Thanks.

Want to organize export of quotes from MetaTrader 5 to your own application? The MQL5-DLL junction allows to create such solutions! This article will show you one of the ways to export quotes from MetaTrader 5 to applications written in .NET. For me it was more interesting, rational and easy to implement export of quotes using this very platform. Unfortunately, version 5 still does not support .NET, so like in old days we will use win32 dll with .NET support as an interlayer.
