edward40 Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Is there a way to get back fed or intraday delayed Emini tick data without a broker? Some historical tick data site or can someone provide me this data? I am back testing and trying the new software and I currently am not trading. I am mainly looking for ES Emini data, even older data. Thank you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Using the standard MT format for the symbol: @ESZ14 for example, you can get delayed quotes and backfill from Yahoo and just backfill from Google. IQFeed had backfill and quotes available - RT or delayed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edward40 Posted December 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 That is a help thank you. What about delayed tick data without a broker account or a paid data feed? I also found some tick data in .txt format on the web, can I utilize this somehow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 we do not have text file import. Only delayed free source currently is Yahoo. We may add others in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edward40 Posted January 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2015 Can I trust the tick data supplied in the Yahoo backfill? I want to check it but do not want to sign up for IQ feed right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted January 3, 2015 Report Share Posted January 3, 2015 Yahoo data is not tick. It is 1 min OHLC. If you are viewing time based charts (vs tick), then it is fine, as long as you are OK with 1 day of data. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
