  • Rajandran said:

  • Asis Ghosh said:

    Should I add an exception for this MT4 plug-in in my Mcafee A/V–because Rateserver.exe is being deleted automatically by the Mcafee System—-

  • Asis Ghosh said:

    Hello–Raj–I am waiting for your response–should I ignore this rateserver.exe virus/malware-Trojan Type warning & go on to install it in my system–Please confirm.

  • Rajandran Rajarathinam said:

    Rate Server is not an virus… It just extracts the data from metatrader and feed into amibroker

  • vicky bhatnagar said:

    Can you please specify the settings to be made on the rate server window, i.e Port: and data_count

    i m not able to configuire meta trader to amibroker. i do whole process, all things is correct but script not added in rateserver task tray.

  • William said:

    I am running windows Vista 64 bit with Amibroker 5.2 Professional . I installed the plug in as instructed with no problems. What I did notice is that when I checked the database settings configuration area the server information was blank with a port setting of 1950. All the plug in will do is show “wait” upon starting then no change. I then try to “connect” with the server but it then reads error. Can you help?
    Thanks, William
