Historical Tick data futures for Ninja to replay

Recommended Posts

Anyone know a free source for historical tick data for futures that can be used in Ninja?

Everyone developing a strategy needs good replay tick data for realistic testing purposes.

I am aware of Ninja's possibility to download, on a one-by-one daily basis, replay data but I am looking for months (or years) of data in order to do more properly backtesting. There are commercial offerings but they are pretty expensive.

With my DTN connection I can get 120 days of tick data (612 Mb text file) but then I am stuck as I can not find any tool to edit this file into Ninja required format in the way Excel could do it (e.g. column manipulation).

Any thoughts and suggestions are highly appreciated.

Hi,

With Amp Trading+ CQG (demo) you can get around 5 years of minute data...I don´t know if they offer tick historycal data in demo account...

Other posibility is Mirus+Zenfire (demo)...

And the last one is to buy very cheap data here...
