Dear dufferdev
To trade forex in India either contact Refco-sify or directly contact
www.fxcm.com which is one of the best online firms with NFA registration in US.
The minimum amount to open an account differs from brokers to brokers. For fxcm.com it is $300 but its better to have $1000 as starting capital.
For charting service
www.netdania.com or
www.interbankfx.com
