How to get more historical ES data into TOS

Discussion in 'Data Sets and Feeds' started by bloomberg1, Sep 3, 2019.

  1. Using think or swim for something on ES, intra day data only goes back about a year, how do I get a few years back to display, need a 3rd party feed of some sort ?

    Thanks

    You can try CQG or Rithmic in Sierrachart, Multicharts or Motivewave. I do not think that TOS takes external data.

    Another option is Tradestation. If you can leave $2k in the acct you will get free live market data & historical data.

    • Stocks and Indexes - Tick-by-tick data is available for thirty days back, one-minute data for ten years back, and daily data for more than 30 years back.
    • Futures - Tick-by-tick data for thirty days back, one-minute data since January 1982, pit data for individual contracts (delivery month/year) since 1970, and back-adjusted continuous contracts since the 1960s.

    Is access to TradeStation's webAPI for futures initiated from one of their websites, or can I get permissioned and started from the trading platform?,
