Default 6.5.0.10 IB backfill

Backfill ok on 1 minute chart, but nothing less. Should be able to get 5 second bars since IB supplies this. (IB PaperTrader account)

Is there a broker that provides free historical tick level data to do backfills on futures? I use IB because of the API, but would change brokers. Opentick is not reliable. eSignal costs money - if I pay them might as well use their charts.

Zen-Fire based brokers. Send a note to sales at ninjatrader dot com and we can provide you with some names.
