Thanks for the tip. I tried IB and wow, their trading platforms look really bad. At the IB trading site I can only see a few commoditys like oil, metals and sugar and that is too few. Also the ETF's might not be what I am looking for. All I want to do is trade commodities and some indexes...

I bought their daily history, seems good. Thanks! I don't know where I will trade in the future but at my current broker I can buy a "mini future" which follows Gold on the exchange "London Bullion market association" and I have data from CME Group and NYSE Liffe. Is it safe to assume that the...

If I am correct IB charges 1.59% per 24 hours when borrowing money for leverage? Is this correct or am I mistaken?

All I want is reliable daily historical data on some of the most popular commodities, some index like S&P and maybe DAX and some forex like USDJPY and USDEUR. No stocks. I don't need/want livefeed and stuff. At the moment I use amibroker for backtesting and such. I prefer not to have to use...

Will check out IB. Yes my "compounded annual interest" or "CAR" halves when I add 1.3% trade fee. In other words my profit is cut in half by "fees".

Can I buy "Futures - Monthly: $35.00" (+60$ software fee) instead of annual subscription? Also can I use the data on for example amibroker, I dont want to get tied to their program. Also, 10 years of daily data is almost too small amount, if I can get earlier data for about the same price I...

I need daily historical data for futures like Coffee, Sugar, Brent Oil, metals and so on. I don't need live feed, just reliable historical daily data for doing backtests. Should be atleast 10-15 years. I got some data from quandl.com but I can't trust them fully. So now I wonder where I can buy...

Daily data. Interested in trying a lot of different instruments, in the long run; all of them. Most interesting at the moment is: commodities, indexes and forex.

Hi, I need daily data to test and build trading systems. I am a small trader and can't really afford to buy data, especially since I want to test systems on a lot of different markets. The problem is that the free data I have found differs a lot. I can't know what is right and what is wrong...
