Hi,
I can't find any example anywhere of a C# console application to receive streaming quotes.
I'm a bit lost with the code for connection to Lightstreamer, sending request and receiving data.
Obviously, I've been through the examples both on IG and Lightstreamer websites and I've dne my research on Google, stackoverflow, etc. but unsucessfully...
Any help would be much appreciated

Spread bets and CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. XX% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading spread bets and CFDs with this provider. You should consider whether you understand how spread bets and CFDs work, and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money. Professional clients can lose more than they deposit.

I managed to connect (I think) so here is the code I used. Feel free to use if helpful
I'm now working on sending a subscription
static void Main(string[] args)
{
ConnectionInfo connInfo = new ConnectionInfo();
LSClient lsClient = new LSClient();
IGStreamingApiClient listener = new IGStreamingApiClient();
string lsUrl = "https://apd.marketdatasystems.com";
string xst = "xxx"; //my XST chain
string cst = "yyy"; //my CST chain
connInfo.PushServerUrl = lsUrl;
connInfo.Password = "CST-" + cst + "|XST-" + xst;
lsClient.OpenConnection(connInfo, listener);
Console.ReadKey();
}
I had to implement the interface IConnectionListener like this (in another namespace)
public class IGStreamingApiClient : IConnectionListener
{
private LSClient lsClient;
public IGStreamingApiClient()
{
try
{
lsClient = new LSClient();
}
catch (Exception)
{
}
}
public virtual void OnConnectionEstablished()
{
Console.WriteLine("Success");
}
