    Dear all,
    what would be a not too expensive but qualitative real-time data provider that allows extensive intraday (tick level or similar) backfill of pricing data of EUREX and US derivatives exchanges?
    I mainly look for index options and futures and for time series of 5 to 10 years length (from today backwards).
    Currently I only have data access through Interactive Brokers. Does anybody know how long of a backfill they allow.

    Regards
    Steve
     
  2. Good luck finding that. For tick data it gets very expensive even a few months back. Esignal data only gos back a few days for example. You most likely should purchase tick data for your specific contract for 5 euros per month as far back as you need.

  3. Or 380 for all tick data for one contract.
     
  4. Maybe you should go with classic data providers like

    first ?
     
  5. I think I tried cqg, but if I remember correctly, I found that the times for their tick data was to the nearest *minute*, not even nearest second.

    I've been using tick data from tickdata.com, they have a wide range of tick data for about $100/yr.
