Tick Data

Most Popular Markets for Tick Data

• S&P 500 Futures (CME - traded since 1982)
• NASDAQ 100 Futures (CME - traded since 1998)
• US Treasury Bonds (CBOT - traded since 1978)
• Dow Jones Futures (CBOT - traded since 1998)

Tick Data can sometimes be hard to find, or rather expensive for the Mini S&P and Mini NASADQ markets. These two markets have many times more ticks than their corresponding large contract. In fact, most contracts of the Mini S&P futures have well over 1 million ticks. That number of ticks makes handling the data cumbersome. Some charting and software programs cannot handle that number of flucations.

Some traders prefer to use 1 minute data on the Mini Index markets instead of tick data files. The smaller time frame still allows testing of daytrading methods and makes the files more managable.

Markets for 1 Minute Data

• Mini S&P 500 Futures (CME - traded since 1998)
• Mini NASDAQ 100 Futures (CME - traded since 1999)
