regards to everyone,



as the title says, i would like to know which would be the best provider of historical and real time tick data for stocks and futures for ninjatrader.


there are some providers for other platforms that only make available 6 months of historical tick data per symbol and nt's provider for the demonstration period seems to make 12 months available. ¿does anyone know of any method to have access to something like 8 years to historical tick data?


very well, thanks, regards.

Hi @maggtrading,
Tick data comes in huge files.
I'm not sure where you can get this, and how much it would slow down Ninjatrader.
I assume you want to scalp and really need tick data, and minute data for instance is not good enough.

I would check DTN, one of the best data providers. Or maybe Rithmic.
Be prepared to pay big bucks...

As a Elite member, you'll be able to download tick data for the most common futures by the way.

Good luck and please let us know what you've found out.
Deetee
