Hello,

Any plans to include data for the Russell 2000 index (US2000) in future?

Thanks.

Hi Parkzo,

If you have a suggested data source for the Russell 2000, we can definitely look into it?

Thanks.

Yes please, that would be great. I've not used any other data providers before but I notice that tickdata.com have data for the Russell 2000.

While making suggestions, it would also be good if you could source more data history for all of the indices. At the moment I think you have data back to 2011 but I want to run a 10 year backtest if possible.

Thanks!

Hi Parkzo,

Tickdata.com is a paid data source which opens the possibility of implementing other competing, paid data sources. We'll move this post to the "Suggestions" area to gauge what paid data sources people would find useful to implement within Tickstory.

Regarding historical data ranges, I think if you are looking at 10 year tick history it is most likely a paid data source that would provide this.

Regards.
