How reliable is LIM data vs. Bloomberg data?

[mizhael]

Comparing historical data for commodity futures,

LIM data vs. Bloomberg data,

lots of differences...

How do I figure out which one is better than the other one?

How do their data quality compare in general?

I know CSI is probably the cleanest? Unfortunately I don't have CSI ...

Anyway, any thoughts on the data quality?

For ease of downloading and programming, I tend to prefer Bloomberg data,

how reliable is Bloomberg data for systematic trading purposes?

Thanks

hi, i come across to the same problems, have you figured out if futures data from bloomberg are reliable or not?

I think Bloomberg data is more reliable. I suppose the brand name has something to do with this opinion of mine. The issue with Bloomberg is that it is so expensive.
