eSignal Datafeed - Tradestation frontend

[roland_p71]

Hello,

I intend to use Tradestation for backtesting purposes. Does it makes sense to use Tradestation as an front end tool and eSignal for datafeed if I want to do intraday backtesting more than 120 days backwards?

Many thanks.

Best Regards,

Roland

Hi Roland,

If you are using TS2000i, yes it does unless you are going to use tick data. We only provide tick data going back up to 10 days. Intraday data goes back up to 180 days.

If you are using TS 8.4, you would need a progam like Owndata to use eSignal data for it.
