General Information

  • Since MultiCharts 9.0 Beta 1 CQG connection no longer requires installing the API, as the API is now integrated into MultiCharts.
  • It is possible to use different accounts for getting data and trading.
  • Real-time data for Indexes is available for Live CQG/AMP accounts only.

To connect CQG data feed in MultiCharts:

CQG accounts originally created for a different software will not work in MultiCharts. Customers need to contact their broker directly to setup their accounts for MultiCharts or request a new account.

Note: CQG software and MultiCharts should not be launched simultaneously.

To Set Up CQG Data Feed Connection

  1. In the QuoteManager Main Menu select Tools and then click Data Sources window. Select CQG in the list of all supported data vendors and click the Settings button.
  2. In the opened up window enter Login and Password.


Note: By default demo mode is turned on. Uncheck the CQG demo box to turn it off. Demo mode is required to be on for demo accounts. If you have a real account, the box is required to be off.

To add an instrument, see Adding Symbol(s) to Symbol List.
