Hi trading fellows,

I trade through NinjaTrader and Interactivebrokers. I'm doing several backtest with several Algos for only the EURUSD. I have aprox. 6 month of data and obviously it's needed much more than that for reliable backtesting results. The problem is that IB has not historical tick data capability; therefore I've tried Kinetick ( just six month ), CGQ ( Pretty expensive besides not exactly NT format ) and others with same undesired features.

So, my question:

How can I buy ( get ) a historical EURUSD tick data that might have a similar statistical performance/behavior with InteractiveBrokers?

IŽd like to hear all options available

Thanks in advance

FYI, IB filter their tick data , whereas CQG, ZenFire do not -just look at Zenfires website for an explanation of unfiltered v filtered data

To obtain at least 12 months data (maybe more?) setup a demo account with Zenfire/Ninjatrader, and record the historical data
