Real-Time Data Feed For MarketWarrior
(
SIGN-UP PAGE) We
selected Barchart.com to work with MarketWarrior because Barchart.com offer one
of the best values of any real-time data service. I have been subscribing to
data services for almost 20 years so let me take a moment and explain why
Barchart.com is a good value.
First, the base
subscription price for Barchart.com is only $39 + exchange fees which includes
the ability to have third party software access the data. Other real-time data
services that offer this type of low starting price lock the data into their
web site display, and do not allow any third party access. When third party
access is made available it requires a substantial additional fee. Barchart.com
is the only real-time data service to combined a low starting price and third
party access.
Second, Barchart.com has a good
selection of data packages to help a trader subscribe to what they want and
keep their data costs low. For example, look at the image from the Barchart.com
sign-up page below. They have a $10/mo data package for CBOT Mini contracts
while other data services require you to subscribe to the full CBOT data
package to get the mini contracts. Also notice Barchart.com has created a data
package of "1 Minute Snapshot" for CBOT futures contracts for only $15/mo.
Third, when you subscribe to a Barchart.com
real-time subscription the other markets are provided to you on a delayed
bases. Other data services make you pay extra to receive delayed data from
additional markets.
Fourth, the real-time
subscriber can access the Barchart.com daily, weekly and monthly data which
includes their history of perpetual continuous futures contracts and perpetual
nearest futures contracts. Traditionally data services consider perpetual
futures to be a premium item and charge extra for accessing this type of data.

use off-line futures data with MarketWarrior you will need a data source. The
two best futures data sources in the US are Pinnacle Data and CSI. Before you
subscribe to these data services you should ask if they support the futures
symbols that you are interested in trading. There are currently two symbols for
most futures, a pit traded symbol and an electronic traded symbol. Make sure
you symbols are supported.
