Sierra support, I use Sierra on TTnet AMP and also on Rithmic with another account. Can you tell me how much historical tick data I have on each? I am wondering how far back I can do reliable backtests with tick data. Perhaps one is better than the other. I thought rithmic had only incoming live tick data with historical being minute data. I am not sure about TTnet. thanks regards |

You will definitely want to use TT Net because there is 4 years of historical tick data available.

Hi Yes that is impressive ! I will use them for backtesting. Is rithmic only 30 days ? For backtesting , is it best to use the volume based continuous contract ? Thank you. regards Date Time Of Last Edit: 2014-08-24 00:07:47

With Rithmic it is different. The current futures contracts do not have historical tick by tick data. You will have access to tick by tick data for expired futures contracts but only on Sierra Chart service package 5.

It makes no difference in regards to historical data.
