Any of you experienced problems with continuus historical data for futures?
I'm on a SIM account, and I can see they have considerable size of historical data (day, minute) - however, how good is it? Did any compared it with Kinetick/other?

thanks

I compared a chart with data from Continuum to one from Tradestation (from Eminiwatch) and I was surprised to find that my chart has many fewer bars. I know tick charts are different depending on where the chart/bars start, but in my chart it's quite clear that it has many fewer bars.

Can anyone else with continuum comment on this? Do you have a way to compare with another data feed?

That was an interesting thread. I wasn't aware of this, but I was observing that the market activity seemed much lower over the past month and I only took a couple trades. Now I know why.

It's going to take a while to analyze the impact.

The magic conversion number is

divide by: 2.61803 =OR= multiply by: 0.38197

I don't think there's an explanation for the attached.
Just wanted to see if any of you saw a similar thing.
To me, it looks like a volume data problem, and I'm sure their technical staff will fix it in no time.
I would like to mention that their Support people are very, very helpful and fast.

Thanks

I don't have the same problem:



It's interesting that volume was so low the past few days because of rollover.

Problem solved - it was an old problem solved a few weeks ago - but I still had the old data.
Guys in Support were really helpful for me.
