Anyone know of some cheap or free charting software that will allow me to go back at least 1 year on a 15 minute chart? I currently use esignal and there data only goes back 3 months which really bites. I'd really like a free solution if possible since esignal is getting my coin. Thanks
If you can program, you'll do better $$ wise if you spend a few bucks acquiring data in a file, then writing a program to do the backtest that uses this data. If you don't know how but want to learn, pick up something simple like Visual Basic or even Excel.
You should check out post here and the associated thread: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=333036#post333036 Also take a look at quote.com's Livecharts, it may do what you want at minimal cost. Richard
I don't know if this helps, but the guys at eSignal recently told me they are going to have at least a year's worth of intraday data for all equities beginning about Nov.
