These are free or 7$ a month with no ads present. You need a data provider, however. I use IB and it is free for most data that I need (including eminis) but you need an IB account. There is a list of data providers on the site:

You should use a quote source with a backfill option (not all will backfill data for you)

hope this helps.

QT/IB is most likely the "cheapest".

However, if you're using another broker and don't want to switch, you might want to consider QT and IQFeed. IQFeed is around $25/month, (no futures).

Also, QT is free with an account at :

Sierra Chart offers a cheap alternative. They are $24.00 per month and you can het the markets you are interested. I know they work with TransAct Futures and Infinity Brokerage.
