I've been looking for a good data feed. I've tried iqfeed w/ Ninjatrader, but I found that the 233 tick chart that I need is amazingly slow on that feed. It is significantly slower than the free gain feed that ninjatrader provides, which still is not meeting my purposes well. The iqfeed rep said that it must be so slow because they take the feed tick by tick and the gain feed is just approximating?? Does this make sense? I'm kind of hazy on how this works.
The person that taught me to trade uses the tradestation platform, and the 233 tick chart for them seems to be about the level of a ~5-10 min chart during the heavier trading times.
I don't have quite enough money yet to use tradestation, but I need to practice.
I was thinking about starting a min deposit account at forex.com and trying their feed out. Does anyone have any opinions on this?
Or could someone recommend me a good feed to use for my purposes? I'm trying to simulate a live tradestation account for as cheap as possible until I get enough cash.
Any help would be much appreciated.
