Who provides Historical Data (Ninja, Mirus or Zen-Fire)?

Here is an answer I got from Mirus Futures on who provides Historical Data (not Market-Replay)

Is this correct?
Thanks!

Mike,

Neither Mirus nor Zen-Fire supply historical data. For Zen-Fire, the historical data comes from Ninja Trader historical data servers.The only way to download data from an expired contract that is no longer in the instrument manager would be from the market replay feature. As mentioned previously they only store about a year of tick data. Regardless of the source of storage, without a 3rd party data service such as one of those mentioned below, there would not be a way to obtain data from ES 09-11

On a Zen-Fire connection, we record and host historical data as a free complementary service to Zen-Fire clients.

Exactly how much data are you looking for? Which instruments and is this for tick or minute data?

Hi Matthew
I was looking for Tick Data for the month of August 2011 (ES911 Contract)
Minute data would do if that was available

Unfortunately we do not store data this far back in a tick interval.

I'd recommend contacting a 3rd party vendor such as www.tickdata.com who you can purchase this data from and import into NinjaTrader.

OK Thanks!
Also, I know this question has been asked before - but are you aware of anyone who has recently begun providing older ES contracts in Ninja Market Replay data?
The market replay data on your server only goes back 1 year I believe

[NinjaTrader_Matthew]

I do not know of an vendors who store replay data. I know there are a few communities online where users are sharing this data. The first place that comes to mind is the Elite Members section of www.bigmiketrading.com

OK
Thanks again!

....can i get daily and hourly data with zen?

[NinjaTrader_Matthew]

The Zen-Fire connection will provide you both minute and daily intervals from the NinjaTrader historical data servers. This minute data can be used to construct hourly bars.
