Has anybody had any experience with Delta Stock?

Dale,


Thanks for the heads up. As long as they are going to implement working level 2 function in the API, this is fine. I don't have to use MT4. The only thing that lets me down is currently Delta Trading software has to be up and running for the API to work, i.e. the API is not independent. It can't talk to quote/execution server directly. This increases possibility of whole system failure.

Hello.

That's true. But there are functions in the API to check for this. Basically if Delta Trading is not up and running then the API will return an error code (but you probably already know that).

I've attached a little application that I wrote specifically for Delta Trading. It's really just a CFD Position Size Calculator (that's all I trade and I couldn't find not ONE SINGLE ONE on the Internet)!!! LOL!!!

Anyway: install it and then press F1 with Delta Trading running and then with Delta Trading NOT running and you'll note the different informational messages.

All I use the API for in the application is to retrieve the current Spot FOREX rate of the CFD price quote if it's not in USD e.g. the DAX (quoted in EUR) or the FTSE (quoted in GBP). That type of thing. Of course: at the moment this version will only work for USD denominated trading accounts.

And hey: if you trade CFDs feel free to use it. It's TRUE FREEWARE i.e. no 'gimmicks' or 'pay me later'. And if you find it useful just check on my forums from time to time for updates. It also functions as a good marketing tool hence all the 'in your face' Deltastock Information etc. LOL!!! But it'll work for any CFD Broker. Obviously if you don't have Delta Trading installed you'll have to input the exchange rates yourself.

Regards,

Dale.
