I guess you wouldn't need level two but does Yahoo offer tick data or is it just time based prices and volume?
That is what I am not sure of. Anyone here could confirm that Yahoo does provide tick data but has delays?
Never heard of Yahoo providing tick data, ever. I mean live quotes were a new thing just a few years ago, hoping for tick data is unrealistic.
As I do not use Yahoo/Google finance I couldn't be sure. Wouldn't make much sense for us suckers that pay for tick data if it were available for free.
You misunderstood me. Maybe I was not clear enough. I am aware that Yahoo Finance does not provide historical tick data. I am actually trying to find out if it provides real-time/delayed quotes update (tick-by-tick). Because from that, I could plot my own tick chart (starting with the first tick bar and build them up over time). P.S. Running my own machine to accumulate tick data - 24/5.
