For a personalised quote email sales@maddockdata.com For professional intra day short-term traders it is necessary to have access to a reliable source of intra day data.  The main problems for the trader/tester that stem from other suppliers of intra day data are as follows: POTENTIAL PROBLEMS with other suppliers The data is usually supplied in "actual contract" form, so is in itself is renderd useless to anyone wishing to test using backtesting software. You cannot "read-in" the data to your backtesting software without considerable and counter-intuitive work. The data does not come with the ability to create back adjusted streams.  Some do, but the quality and control functionality is usually terrible. The tester needs to be able to compress the data from 1 min to any timeframe.  There are usually issues where the data doesnt line up when matching two streams. There are volume, uptick and down tick issues. There are session opening and closing time nightmares where suppliers often chop off the session start and end times, so the data often does not mimic reality. Suppliers timestamps can be out of synch, so that when importing into backtest software it errors out. Suppliers leave in nightessions, and dont inform the user whats what. Suppliers do not follow the liquidity through the life of the stream, eg BP[pit] now virtually obsolete, and BP[24h] (trading through the pit timeframe 0720h - 1400h) are not knitted or connected in any intuitive form. Scores of other subtle issues exist. High price of data purchase may be a barrier for testing purposes, 40 symbols from CQG in a non-user-friendly format may set you back $40,000 or more. The use of "in-house supplied data" in certain testing platforms can be of extremely poor quality.
