Cryptocurrency Market Data source

Hi there,

Anyone knows a most reliable data source or two to download daily or hourly Cryptocurrency data for BTC and many other Altcoins as well, to throw it in Tradestation or multicharts and run some analytics?
Ideally it could be a live stream to Universal DDE (https://www.multicharts.com/trading-software/index.php/Universal_DDE) Excel or ASCII file that is constantly updated, so could have some monitoring ability as well.
Many crypto websites have these APIs, that supposadly would do a job, but I can't find anyone knowledgable (even to pay) to actually piece it together and make an end product that works.
Any advice would be appreciated....
 
Am looking for sources of historical cryptocurrency price data for coins that failed / were discontinued.

Anyone know where to get this?

Thanks.

If you're open to testing out another platform, MotiveWave (www.MotiveWave.com) offers two built in cryptocurrency data feeds - CryptoCompare.com (combined feed and also individual exchanges) and Coinigy. Trading functionality for cryptocurrencies is also in the works.
