    This is a strange forum, the signal to noise ratio is particularly bad..

    Where to get tick data?

    Well I get a bunch of vendors trying to sell it. Sure, I could visit all of their websites, shop around, etc., or I could ask some fellow traders what they're using. It seems nobody knows or nobody wants to talk about this which is odd.

    I'm just curious mate, as I recently bought a new car in cash from my trading winnings and it reminded me of this post... did you ever get that car? No hate, just legitimately hoping we've both progressed in the last 4 years.

    Where to get tick data?

    I posted a similar question in the "indices" section 4 months ago and still have gotten 0 replies on the post. It seems like a simple question: Where can I get historic and real-time data of indices? I just want realtime quote data for FTSE, DOW, DAX, CAC, AXJO, and a few others, as well as...

    Where to get realtime FTSE data?

    Like I said, I needed to change my strategy, and I did. It's much more versatile and the risk is managed. You need to work on your issues mate, it's not healthy to obsess over another person this much.

    That's pretty sad and yet quite revealing, that you felt like you had to come back 3 days later and try to pick a fight. Have I struck a nerve? Have I been living rent-free in your head? Are you having trouble sleeping at night? Ironically, you just proved my quote about envy getting in the...

    IG Index "dealing desk" delays...

    @highbury fx, there are some on this forum that like to get into arguments with people; they tend to be repeat offenders; I wouldn't worry about it. Personally, I think you've made fantastic contributions to this forum.

    Yeah fair enough, I never complained about their prices; I'm trading at their prices. But surely you can see that there is a problem when they close all your positions without telling you?
