I need to build a reliable data for the the E-mini S&P500. Since my broker is IB, there's not historical data to download. I'm aware of Kinetick as an excellent provider of historical data, and since this info comes from its exchange, it should be the same regardless provider you're connecting to, so I should proceed with Kinetick. Now I have a couple of question to ask you for your experience:
1. Since the E-mini S&P500 is a future contract, with quarterly rollover : is the Kinetick's historical data correctly merged ?
2. Since Kinetick is unfiltered data, do this Kinetick's and IB's data, have the same behavior ?
3. After having the historical data built, which contract month future should you download in a time like this, when you have actively December13 and March14 ?
4. What is the Kinetick's merge policy for futures in a case like earlier commented ?
Thanks
