Package for the FTSE futures & E-minis.

[Max Ekstein]

HI. I need some advice about a software package for the FTSE futures and e-minis.

I need real time data and would like as much historical intra day data as possible to back test.

I am looking at Tradestation and e-signal. However, Tradestation does not appear to access non-US markets.

If anybody has thoughts on the best way to do this it would be appreciated.

Hi Max,

I wanted to provide you with some additional resources so that you can see the specifics of the EuroNext LIFFE data offerings that are currently available.

I've also included the direct links to our symbol guide and newly formed Knowledge Base to assist with any other questions you may have. Hope this helps.

Take a look at the software guide and look at the links to and reviews for


Updata Technical Analysis
and
Linnsoft Investor RT
as these imo are alternatives worth considering

both can operate on the myTrac datafeed which will give you both instruments quite economically. Linnsoft has the superior backtesting ability
