Hi there,

Many thanks,

I need some intra day data for free,

I have found this:

http://www.micro-trends.co.uk/downloads/backtest/forex/gbpusd/minute/

But NT is not accepting the data.

Can I use a free data supplier to get hist data of cable, at 1 minute min.

Thanks

Hello monkey180,
Unfortunately I am not aware of any free intraday data.

Please change the name of the txt file to $GBPUSD.Last.txt and see if you can import the data.

Please let me know if I can assist you any further.
