Hi, I understand from docs that SC maintains historical intraday FOP data for CME futures as from Sept (or Nov) of 2017. Is (best)bid-ask available with 1min resolution or is it only "trade"? Is tick data maintained, and if yes, will it contain bid-ask? Thank you. |

Yes this data is available and it is tick by tick. And it does contain the bid and ask prices at the time of the trade.

Sorry, I am not fully clear. Is bid-ask available with 1 min bars or is it only for tick data? What is meant by "bid-ask at the time of the trade"? Often there are no Trades, but there is bid and ask..I assume these would be available regardless of a trade occuring, correct? |

Is bid-ask available with 1 min bars or is it only for tick data? Only the bid and ask prices are recorded when there is a trade. We tried recording them all the time but it created a major performance issue. But if you have real-time access to this data feed, you can record them on your side.

Understand. However, option trades occur infrequently, rendering such data "outdated" for backtesting. Would you consider switching to a less frequent, 1/min recording of bid-ask instead? This would keep load appr. the same, but data would be usable.. |
