Just to make it clear, the current eSignal QCharts data comes from a
combination of eSignal and QFeed data feeds. The QFeed data feed was used
on the older version of QCharts (version 5.1 and earlier) prior to eSignal
buying Quote.com including both QCharts and the data. The current QCharts
version (6.0.3.x) has been modified to use the eSignal data feed and current
tick data coming directly from the eSignal servers includes 100% of all
ticks from the exchanges but that only includes the latest 120 days of data.
Beyond the 120 days, the tick data source is the QFeed servers and due to
bandwidth limitations tick data on these servers has been throttled by as
much as 50% on high trade issues such as AAPL - using 5/05/2009 as an
example. Also, the QFeed servers include 10 years of 1 minute data.
Best regards,

Subject: RE:Historical Tick data
Switched to QCharts which belongs to Esignal's parent co. Data
Manager is exactly the same and same connection as Esignal's. I just
changed the user name and password. It didn't work right off so I
installed the QCharts software then rebooted. Works fine now. I
pulled a chart on FLEX for 360 days back and zip bang bingo here it
all comes. Oh I'm using Multicharts not the QCharts package. So
after two years of promises eSignal still doesn't have it but QCharts
does. Got me. Looks and acts like a duck. Real time data shows to
be same number of ticks per another honored member of this list Bob
Scott. So if you want a year of tick data. Many years of minute
data... it can be done easily now. If anyone wants the proceedure to
add the extended data let me know. Best of all it is FREE.
