    I'm proud to announce that we've launched our official Rust client library this week. Check it out on GitHub here. We chose to support Rust due to its ideal properties for financial trading systems, with manual memory management, predictable performance, easy access to low-level facilities...

    Historical data for futures needed

    Our CME history goes back to 2017-05-21. If you only want GE end-of-day it's just $3.29 for 5 years. Tick data is a bit higher, at $95.61 for 5 years. You can select the instruments of interest and fetch pricing on our site. I should point out that I think SOFR futures have become the de...

    Datastore design recommendations

    Interesting, thanks for sharing. It seems the single-file limitation is the primary trade-off here. In our case we need horizontal scale-out, but a single server/file is plenty for most users and use cases. Polars is nice. We're one of their official sponsors. ;)

    Datastore design recommendations

    We've not used TimeBase but it looks like it's a proprietary software by Deltix. Deltix itself is a reasonably good company, but we don't have data points beyond that. We just use our own open-source file format (Databento Binary Encoding) for exactly the purpose you've described—it serves as...

    Recommended Service for ES tick data

    We don't have a direct integration with NinjaTrader. You'd have to either use our HTTP API or Raw TCP API in C# to integrate us in NinjaTrader.

    Databento real-time CME data: Now open to all users starting at $32.65/month

    Unfortunately no, that's essentially what our historical API is for. Unlike most other vendors you've probably come across, our historical and live message schemas are 100% identical, so that you can use the same code for historical and live, and you can just feed your code into the replay API...

    Microprice Wrong?

    Microprice Wrong?

    74.75 makes more sense. It is significantly above the midprice of 62.5.

    Microprice Wrong?

    No, this is correct. You can do a sanity check yourself: the theoretical price (microprice) should be higher when there's stronger buying interest (larger bid size), and lower when there's stronger selling interest (larger ask size). The ask price is always larger than the bid price, so you...

    Databento launches real-time CME data

    Thanks! 1. CME doesn't require a license to get historical data. Hence, there's also no "base fee" for historical data. 2. A non-pro user can freely use our API on a regular display license. Currently, CME doesn't have a non-display license category for non-pros as the display license is...

    Datastore design recommendations

    Nice, I'm glad it worked out for you, and thanks for the update. Unfortunately, we don't. Fed releases and other macro releases are difficult because there are premium feeds like AlphaFlash specifically optimized to monetize those events and deliver them from the embargo facility, e.g. K St...

    Dumb Question: Difference between EW3 and EW ...

    No, they both have the ES futures contract as underlying. EW is the monthly contract, whereas EW3 is one of the weekly contracts. They differ by expiration date — last business day of the month vs Friday of the contract week (third week, in this case).

    pandas 2.0 is here — and Databento now officially supports dataframes

    pandas 2.0 is out today, and we're excited to see substantial performance improvements brought by the new Apache Arrow backend. If you don't already know, Databento's Python client library has had native support for pandas dataframes for a while! For example, fetching all ticks within a day...

    Databento releases auction imbalance data for US equities

    Yes it will be, and we only bill a user for the amount of data that they consume, so it will be much cheaper to subscribe to specific option chains than the full full feed.

    Databento releases auction imbalance data for US equities

    For real-time OPRA data: Our usage-based fees will be about $1,500-$3,000 per month for the full feed (all trades and quotes, all symbols). Most of our users aren't consuming all symbols on the full feed. For example, we have a quant hedge fund consuming only about 10% of all CME options. So...
