Historical minutes data for ES mini

B

biduece

Hi
I am looking for historical minutes data for ES mini for last 5-10 years.
I was going with true data it looked costly to me as they are charging $1000 per year. I have IB account, so I will have access to their platform.
Not sure how continuous future will replicate accurate montly future data and/or if cash/spot ES mini replicate monthly future data. Any suggestion?

thanks

Only to a degree.

Wasted effort, in my view.

You need to get an handle on "how is the market behaving at this time". Price data from waaay back I doubt will be of any help to you.

You just need the data in CSV format?
 
If you want to be cheap - I'm sure there's solutions for that. I think you can rip data from Ninjatrader charts. In fact I know, since I do it on daily/weekly/monthly charts.

But for quality 1-minute data I use QCollector/IQ Feed.

thanks for reply, I am a system trader and this market is new to me. I am trying to establish atleast few parameters like overall DD, win rate and RR etc. I don't get confidence until I have tested atleast 250 sample in backtesting. I trade swings so I guess decent data quality will do the job for me.
