There are many years of historical tick data in Elite section of the site, but to my knowledge Tradestation is a closed loop system so not sure how you could use that data.

You can import ASCII data into TS nowadays, but it's not really great and you can't add it to the original TS data.

historical tick data is hard to come by with TS, and tends to be not as accurate since it is bundled.

I completely disagree with the second part of this statement. This is why:

As for the first part, TS isnt like ninja where you can point it to a file and chart some data. Its a closed end system. Only data that can be charted is that coming from TS servers.

Thanks for the info, only been on TS for a few months, so still missing some of the finer points
