The data is free for clients, so why should one have to pay for the MCFX package.
By implementing the new API features, this can be done, too.
So Multicharts would be competable compared to other third party charting software, which
delivers a free data access to FXCM historic data.

According to our agreement with FXCM, their data is provided through our servers for 99 USD fee per 1 month.

FXCM connection now uses the Forex Connect API.

Introducing Forex Connect API is fine but the FXCM data feed is still missing which is what was requested. FXCM data feed is free to FXCM clients and hence the same data feed should be available free through MC also. Please make this available. If this is achieved, then, please advise how the settings can be defined in MC.
Thanks and Best Regards

Hello, it is possible to get all data from CFDs too ? Can they be traded too ? MCFX just says something about Forex data only.

We are working with FXCM to see if we are able to implement FXCM data feed in MultiCharts, hopefully it is available in future.
