There is no such instrument at this moment in forex or CFD versions.
However, in the next version of the Marketscope, when loading of other instruments/timeframes data become possible for an indicator, we will be able to develop the indicator which shows the USD composite index.

And now we can do it. You can find the USD Index as an example of such indicator, and I'll work on the composite a bit later.

Hi,
Is it possible to get the USD Index on the spreadbetting version of the Trading Station platform?
I had a look through the symbol list but couldn't find it anywhere.
Thanks.

Ignore the above, I found the usd index indicator. Didn't realize you had built it up from the composites but thought it was available as a 'real' chart.

Cool. Just check two things, please:
1) Please use the latest version (I hope it is so, because I removed the previous version May, 05 from this topic: viewtopic.php?f=17&t=609.
2) Please be subscribed for all the required pairs: EUR/USD, USD/JPY, GBP/USD, USD/CAD, USD/SEK, USD/CHF

It's not an absolutely "real chart", because:
a) it is shown as a line always (there is no candle or bar mode).
b) you cannot trade on the index.

However, everything else is like for a real chart, i.e. indicators and/or signals can be used for this data.
