metatrader comprehensive historical data for indexes, commodities,... futures&cfds

Hello all


I would like to ask you about some way to get comprehensive high quality historical data (as old as possible, with the smallest possible time frame and with as many different symbols as possible) for futures and cfds for metatrader.


It turns out that I already downloaded metatrader from Trading Platform MetaTrader. Forex with Alpari and Applications for BrocoTrader - Broco and these brokers do provide futures and cfds on their metatrader client applications. Nonetheless, although I have found some historical data for example on indexes or commodities with these two brokers, they are not so good as the historical data I could find for some currency pairs in forex. For example, for some symbols, this historical data only lasts two years back from now.


I would appreciate if anyone could tell me some way to get comprehensive historical data in futures on indexes, commodities, etc because I need to develop and test several strategies(expert advisors) with several products(indexes, commodities...).


Look forward to seeing your comments soon.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Are there sources where to find all historical data like 5 minute for many indexes many years ?...It use a demo of fxpro but it shows only data two months back. Someone ideas where all data is stored and where to get it? thanx
