Data vendor - Who the best?

hi all,

I want to register with some data vendor in order not to trade but only to see the charts in NinjaTrader, but:
- Who fits the best in giving the most products i posted on january 12th?
- who doesn't have to install any other software (like eSignal Data Manager)?
- and obviously, that one must be able to plot some historical (not like IB).

Who do you recommend me?

This is the last step in my cot indicators developing.

thanks,
jr

Hi jrbolsa, please take a look at this comprehensive list of all your data options in NinjaTrader - http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...ricalData.html

You can easily see which type of data is supported and also who has which type of historical data available.

Data vendor - Who the best?

I saw that page but I'd like not to have to read every web page to answer my questions.

One more week ...

ok, thanks,
jr.

We have many mutually respected partners, so unfortunately I cannot recommend you one. Maybe our community members will assist here to make your decision easier.

ok - easier

I suppose no NT worker can recommend one vendor, so for the other users:

Can anybody give me a name of a data vendor that

a) has future commodities like corn, oats, wheat, ...
b) has historical data
c) doesn't need to install no other software more than NT
d) has a trial period
e) gives access asap
?

Just that.

Thank you very much,
jr

I don't trade futures so someone else with have to chime more specifically but if OpenTick is taking new members I would suggest that (super cheap). Not sure if there are futures but there would likely be ETFs based on the futures contracts.

You can also register a demo acct with forex.com for forex data if needed.

I use Esignal which has proven very reliable so far. It has all the markets you mention. The historical data is not as far back as I would like (I believe 20 days for tick data, but a bit longer for intra-day time). They have a 30-day trial for their full charting, so I imagine they have one for their data service as well.
Here's a link with pricing for the "Ninja-Trader Special". It's not the cheapest data, but I've found it to work verywell (so far).

How about getting a Zenfire demo from Mirus oder someone else?

There you'll get a trial version...

[jrbolsa]

Don't you need another software (data manager) with e-signal?

Hello,

Mirus supports commodity futures. What are you trying to chart and what his happenning?

[jrbolsa]

I have a demo account with Zen-Fire.
I connect perfectly.
I select File/new chart and select ZC future 02-09 (Corn Futures). Daily bars (365 days back). Interval settings = 1 day. Chart template: none. Last date: 31/01/2009

... and nothing appears.

That's what's happening.

regards,
jr.

Zen-fire does not support historical daily data - all you can do is set interval to 1440 minutes

[jrbolsa]

I don't see anything in any minute interval.

I think i didn't explain myself very well.

I said:

a) has future commodities like corn, oats, wheat, ...
b) HAS HISTORICAL DATA (in commodities, obviously)
c) doesn't need to install no other software more than NT
d) has a trial period
e) gives access asap

¿Is there any vendor for that?

Try ZC 03-09. Does CBOT has contract for corn 02-09? I am not sure...
