FXCM Integration - Data and Live Trading

[Bryan Fletcher]

Hi Everyone, 

If anyone is interested, we're going to start working on fully integrating Zipline with FXCM for historical data, forex support, and live trading.  No ETA at this point, but I'm happy to answer any questions.  

Also, we're appreciative of any feedback from users who have explored using Zipline with FX. 

If you need free data in the meantime to play with, just let me know.  We have excellent FX data from 16 liquidity providers going back to 2002 as well as daily sentiment data for the majors back to 11/1/2006. 

Best regards,
