Cheap HSI Futures Historical Data

Hi all,

I don't really know whether this is suppose to be in Trading discussion subforum but I believe the mods will move it to a more appropriate place if I was wrong.

meanwhile, I have been looking for a historical data provider specifically for the HSI Futures or Hang Seng Index Futures, not the H-Shares or Mini-H.

I'm currently developing a daytrading method using a low timeframe, thus I need the data for manual backtesting in forextester.

I need intraday m1 data or tick by tick data going back 2 years or more, and more importantly, I hope they are cheap enough for my budget.

I've emailed several data providers last friday but they have yet replied me, so I decided to ask here in the forums whether anyone has that kind of information.

Thank You in Advance,

Marcel.

man, no one replied...

The HKEX sells their data directly. You can get tick data for HK$100/month.

I'm looking for HSI data myself too.

great, thanks a lot, I'm going to send these samples to forextester developer to see whether they can use it in their program.

you trade HSI too?

Not yet, and not anytime soon. Just in early-stage planning to build a custom app to do it. Still a lot of work to do. Some of those intraday breakouts look enticing.

Do you manual or auto trade HSI?

Manual of course, I'm not a programmer and I don't think I'm cut out to be one.

Hello Marcelnyo,
It's good to see traders who have the ability in HS futures trading. Can u share with us your trading technique used in HS futures?. I am currently trading at HS futures with scalping technique 1 and 5 minutes time frames, but sometimes still have to overcome obstacles in a very volatile HS futures market.

best regards,
Cidung
