    There you will find a real time data feed on a whole host of instruments. You can access the data in MQL language and send it to you custom pet platform using normal Windows DLL calls.

    Importing Function (#import) - MQL4 Documentation

    Then you can send your real time quotes (bid/ask) tick by tick or bar by bar to your application.
    Aha! Thank you, when I rule the world your death will be quick and painless!

    I just want a data feed and will write the platform myself.

    Equities, futures, options, spot forex, commodities...

    Are you talking about a trading platform, or just data feed?

    Need more info.

    Several on Google seem to require membership and other things. Are there any that you can just plug in and use?
