Hi All,

Can someone suggest a realtime data feed provider from a broker that also has a Microsoft .NET technology API component, at the moment I am using an OpenEcry but having difficulties with their API and current documentation?

Any help will be much appreciated.

Regards

If you use IB, this one is great. But it is not the only option, of course there are a multitude of brokers and third party feeds out there. Not all free though.

Best wishes,
TB

Zen-Fire has a .NET API and you can request a free demo account.

Is there a time limit on the Zen-Fire free demo account? I see that NinjaTrader is available with it. Is that free also with no expiration? This information on their website is not clear. It appears that Zen-Fire is the data provider and NinjaTrader is the demo platform.

Has anyone tried these demo accounts?

You get what you pay for. Try OEC.

Trade real money, and trade small until you get the feel of it.
Scaling up requires emotional capital as well, so you'd better know what you're doing before you even go there.

How about starting with free demo accounts until you get the feel of it?

I'm a certified NinjaScript developer, and been using the NT platform for many years. The platform itself is completely free, no limitation (except that you can't submit live trades to a broker on the free platform). There is a free spot currency feed from Gain Capital...been using it for years. The Zen-Fire datafeed is free for the first 30 days, they're becoming more restrictive on that...30-days and you're out, no exceptions. There is a new data provider named Kinetick and they're relatively inexpensive, but you do need to pay exchange fees in addition to the Kinetick charge. But, Kinetick is supplying intraday stock data, which is a first for NinjaTrader.

Let me know if you have any additional questions!
