Who has the best Historical Tick Data?

[bwolinsky]

E-signal and all the data providers do a disservice to their members not keeping 5 years of tick data on hand. They should at least have 2 years, but they're lazy and don't want to store it.

Anyone know E-Signal's back fill for tick data? It was 10 days but I would hope its been upgraded since.

I'm surprised nobody here has mentioned Bloomberg for historical data. Is there a reason for this?

Yea, it costs an arm and a leg.

I wonder why nobody mentioned IQFeed.
It gives 120 days of ticks, it VERY similar to kinetick, but has a couple of advantages. And costs only $63/mo for US stocks.

Data is free from trial feeds from iq and cqg. YEARS of data there for free.

Years of TICKS - but not a full book, sorry - which makes it quite useless for proper testing.
