Best VIP data source ?
Posted: Mon May 21, 2012 5:50 pm
Any views on which broker's data is best from the VIP data service please? I started by downloading FXCM data, but that has some price and time gaps where none occur on e.g. my Interactive Brokers 1 minute charts (and yes, I do use 1 minute charts for precise trade entry). I then tried FXOpen data, which appears to have a thin market at times compared to IB (the charts look like shrapnel at times). Then I tried to download the same data from Interbank FX, (26th March 2010 to the present day tick and 1 min data). That was taking so long I had to abort the download - is there a huge amount of tick data from that broker, or did I just hit a busy server time?
Any opinions as to which broker's '1 minute plus tick' data is best?
Thanks, Max
