HI,
What is the best (cheapest) way to obtain CL's data for backtesting?
I probably only need the last 5 years, but IB only gives me 2 years max.

Tks.

There are many, many, many years of tick data for CL, ES and other popular instruments in the main Elite forum section. Search QCollector for thread title.
