Anyone able to point me in the direction of a good data provider for U.S equities? I'm looking for historical charts down to 1 minute time frames, ideally as far back as 5 years or more.
We offer Realtick, a trading platfrom for Equities, Options and Futures, which has great charts. For equites, you can choose a 1 minute time frames for a max of 250 days using any start date up to 5 years ago. https://www.lightspeed.com/trading-platforms/realtick-pro-and-express/realtick-platform-features/
Hi Robert, That looks ideal for what I am looking for, but i'm only going to be using it for backtesting at the minute so would like to avoid having to set up an account with a $25,000 minimum and chunky monthly subscriptions fees. Would you know of any similar style data source that doesn't require a trading account and ideally with fee's below $50 per month? Cheers
