Hist. data futures

[Astronautas]

I would like to build  futures trading mql robot (mostly focus on oil but other commodities interesting also). Unfortunately it's problem to gain hist. futures data, what's necessary for backtesting. So, I wish to ask: perhaps somebody knows where to receive ticks expired futures. 

[Oleksandr Medviediev]

To obtain tick data for expired futures, you can consider using the MetaTrader 5 (MT5) platform, which provides a built-in Strategy Tester tool for testing and optimizing trading robots using historical quotes of currencies, stocks and other assets. 

This tool allows you to test the efficiency of an Expert Advisor (EA) and detect the best input parameters before using it for real trading. However, if you specifically need tick data for expired futures, you may need to find a data provider that offers historical tick data for futures contracts. One such provider is Amplify Futures, which offers MT5 automated trading strategy tester services for testing and optimizing trading robots.  Additionally, you can explore other data providers that offer tick data for futures contracts, such as Quandl, Intrinio or Alpha Vantage.

Happy trading!
