if i'm not mistaken, the better way to track streaming prices is by using the COM or Java API's. the Price SDK is better for building historical pricing that can later be used to fill in price gaps in the COM or Java API feeds.

but maybe the guys at FXCM can better advise you on this?

You would be better off getting the real time rates using the trading api. That will always have the most up to date information. Also with the trading api would would be able to see your trades in real time. The COM api is the same as having the Trading Station so anything that you can do with the Trading Station you can do with the api.
