Can you explain, please, how can I pump in the WL 5.6 the online and historical data from http://www.hquotes.com/ ? http://www.esignal.com/futuresource/features.aspx?
Where can I find the charts and the data of the futures (SP and commodity) in the WL 5.6?

Thanks in Advance.

Hi Denis,

To make things clear, we (MS123 LLC) are not a data vendor. Hence, WLD 5.6 relies on 3rd party data. The choice of data vendor is up to you.

You can import the futures data in any supported format like ASCII and Metastock for charting and backtesting from any vendor that supports them. Some free sources of futures data from our WL5 Wiki FAQ: Where to find a source of historical futures data?

Re: Esignal data - there's a 3rd party extension designed to connect to "Multi-quote server" that's capable of plugging in to eSignal (unsupported; see Extensions). Once our Esignal and QuoteTracker providers are released (MS123 is working on them currently), you'll have 2 supported vehicles for working with eSignal data.

Re: hquotes.com. Their supported data formats are Metastock and ASCII, so you can instantly connect these data sources to WLD 5.6. See the User Guide > Data > Data Manager > Create New DataSet > Data Providers > ASCII and MetaStock.
