Greetings everyone,

My current broker provides only 2 weeks of ES tick data.
I'm looking for at least 6 months back.
I'm using MultiCharts.
What's the best way to go about getting the remaining historical tick data attached to my live feed?


thank you all
-Andrew R.

TradeStation has six months of data for every symbol. In some cases, you can get more that that using custom futures symbols.

Note also that "tick data" is not the same from every provider. The devil is in the details.

IQFeed is the best. Have used them for about a decade, and they also are a proud sponsor of the community, plus offer an Elite Member discount:

You've been paying around $150 a month for their service?

I would suggest looking at sierra charts. Their monthly platform subscription fee(~$30/mo) includes a historical data service:
(sorry, can't post a link yet, but the description for their historical data service should be easy to find in google)

Their historical CME futures tick data goes all the way back to 2011.

If you are looking to only use the data in multicharts, it might be possible to harvest the data from sierra charts and import it into multicharts, but i'm not sure about the data formats between the two programs.

Also, be aware that the sierra software is not particularly user friendly, nor are their staff. But the documentation is quite good.

I switched to Sierra Chart a few months ago. Very pleased! If you want to do something, chances are SC has the capability. Be prepared to spend some time figuring it out though, combing thru their online docs, etc.
