Hi thankyou for the gain data feed. How would one go about using that on Ninjatrader. Could I use the files directly from GAIN or ddoes one have to use some type of application for the data to be readily usable in Ninjatrader???

Hi,

today I've been asked by a systematic trader where to get historical tick data with a reasonable quality and the possibility to hook up to the same feed in real-time.

Check out the following link:

However, always remember that the more sensitive your system is to the price, the more you need to make sure you test on data you can also deal on.

Hi Michal,

I have recently registered in your Site and on June 30 I have sent you a private message but perhaps you have not arrived because
it ended up in the Outbox;

therefore, I ask you if I have committed some errors:
after logging in, I clicked on: Send private messagge, under your profile (see image 1), and after entering
the: Subject and wrote the message (in image 2 is just an example), I clicked on the: Submit button, and then the words appeared:
This messagge has been sent successfully (see image 3), but the message ended up in the Outbox instead of the Sent messages box.

Could you explain me where I went wrong?

I look forward to your reply and thank you in advance.
