    historical stock analyst ratings?

    Thanks, I did come across this. Do you use it? What's the pricing like? They don't list costs on their website and I need to give them a phone number before they'll give a quote. Makes me think it'll be thousands of dollars.

    historical stock analyst ratings?

    I'm looking for a source to purchase downloadable analyst ratings for S&P 500 stocks in the past few years. That is, every individual rating (by legitimate analysts) for each of the 500 stocks. Zach's seems to just have aggerate rating summaries. TipRanks doesn't let me download it, just...

    connecting custom program to AMP Futures brokerage?

    I currently have a program I developed that subscribes to data, processes the data, and makes trade decisions for me. To actually execute the trades, I have it communicate with Interactive Broker's API via TCP/IP. I would now like to use AMP Futures for the futures side of my trading, since...

    mini Russell 2000 on CME AND ICE?

    OK, makes sense. Thanks. So looks like few more months before CME's contract really picks up.

    mini Russell 2000 on CME AND ICE?

    What am I not understanding correctly? I thought the mini Russell 2000 was going to be exclusive to CME starting July 10th. But it's still being offered by ICE now, and volume is orders of magnitude higher there still...

    FTSE 100 moving from ICE to CME?

    It has been well reported that CME gained "exclusive" rights to FTSE and Russell index contracts starting July 1st. I assume that would mean FTSE 100 contracts, however CME only lists mini FTSE 100s now, and ICE lists full contracts going well into 2018 on their webpage. So is ICE keeping the...

    historical data on TSX 60 Index Futures

    does anyone know where I can purchase historical data on S&P/TSX 60 Index Futures. I've found lots of onlines sources selling other futures, but not this one. Looking for about 5 years of 1 minute bars (ideally the continuous contract).

    Interactive Brokers and pacing violations

    First step is to verify their data with historical data I already own. Then I too will just use to keep database up to date like you do. But they do offer data going back years, some of which people buy booster packs to access. So my question is geared for those who have downloaded these...

    Interactive Brokers and pacing violations

    Does anyone here use IB for historical data? I wonder if I'm looking at their rules wrong, because based on my interpretation, it seems almost impossible to get a decent chunk of data: https://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/software/api/apiguide/tables/historical_data_limitations.htm For...

    Interactive Brokers historical data

    Sounds like it. And futures data only goes back a max of 2 years (1 year if no booster packs are purchased). Stocks can go back much further (if booster packs paid for)

    Multiple Futures on Same Underlying

    For example, take the ES contract vs the S&P500 contract sold on the BM&F. When both the CME and BM&F are open, the intraday prices between these two still often differ by a decent amount (and not a constant amount). Why is that? Shouldn't arbitrage result in these two contracts always being...

    Interactive Brokers historical data

    For those of you with IB, I see they offer delayed data for instruments on exchanges you do not subscribe to. Do they also offer historical data for these instruments?

    Interactive Brokers historical futures data

    Are you able to download the historical continuous contract of Futures from the IB API? https://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/software/api/apiguide/tables/historical_data_limitations.htm says "Historical data requests require the expiration to be specified, at this time continuous contract is...

    SPX weekly options

    I'm interested in getting my feet wet with either SPX or SPY options, and have found a large amount of great information online, but can't find some basic practical stuff anywhere. Hoping you all could help me out some: 1) Based on http://www.cboe.com/micro/weeklys/spxweeklys.aspx, the SPX M...

    Options House by Etrade?

    I'm looking for a good broker/platform for trading options, and I really like the Options House software, but the commission seems really high. I mean, 0.50 per contract is fine, but then they also charge a 4.95 base fee. Interactive Brokers seems to charge roughly the same per contact, but no...
