Hello, I'm contacting you because the pricing information isn't entirely clear to me. To give you some context, I want to create a trading strategy using my own code . Then, I want to apply it to a chart and use the strategy analyzer to see the results. I want to trade the S&P 500 futures, but i want at least 5 years of data. I also want to implement the CVD (Cumulative Delta) indicator to test my strategy. However, since it's an order flow indicator, I need market data. Therefore, I can't implement this indicator at the moment. Furthermore, to perform a robust backtest, I need at least five years of data. So, my question is, what license or subscription do I need to implement the CVD (Cumulative Delta) indicator and have at least five years of data? It's worth noting that I don't want to use Market Replay. I simply want to backtest the delta indicator and have at least five years of data to use in the strategy analyzer. It's not clear to me whether I need a lifetime license or a subscription that already includes at least five years of historical market data and the delta indicator for use in the strategy analyzer.

Are you wanting real-time data, or is the historical data enough for you?
