Historical Intraday data for Forex?

R1234 · Feb 24, 2016

hi guys I want to backtest some intraday FX trading ideas (USD pairs as well as some cross rates) and I was looking for historical data going back several years.

I'm not looking to spend thousands of dollars but maybe up to a few hundred at most (free would be even better of course).

Any suggestions?

TIA

Dukascopy provides tick data back to 2003 for free.
But you need a tool to convert the data to candle data.

Whether is important to use hirtorical data for long years back , often in my trades only use only few week history data to analyze trend ahead, because often work as intraday trader

I agree that use of few weeks history data will work for you but i am new to forex so trying to get all the data. So that i can start as a good PRO.
