WAVE59^® DATA FEED OPTIONS

With Wave59 PRO2, you choose the best data feed and pricing option for you:

Wave59 requires a connection to an external data feed

Current support for IQFeed, CQG, Kraken, Interactive Brokers, Metastock Xenith, Oanda, Google, and Yahoo.

For a comparison of all supported feeds, please consult the chart below. The feeds are listed in recommended order.

Data Feed Comparison
Feed	Comments	Price
IQFeed	By far the best of the retail feeds, and the recommended choice for W59 users. Note that W59's unique energy bars, and many other upcoming bar types are only available through IQFeed.	$65-$160/month*, depending on options.
CQG	If you are a futures trader, this is the best data money can buy. It is also extremely expensive. Requires CQG Integrated Client with API enablements.	$740-$1640/month*, depending on options.
GFDL	Global Financial Datafeeds (GFDL) is an Indian-based feed provider. If you trade the NFO, NSE, CDS, or MCX, this is the feed for you. Requires one of their "NimbleKey" subscriptions (all variants work).	Varies by Exchange
Kraken	Kraken provides extensive historical data and real time updates on all cryptocurencies they make a market for. Requires some user maintenance to manage the database. Cryptocurrencies only.	Free data.
Oanda	Oanda provides access to an extensive historical database and real time updates. This will work with both their live accounts (premium only) as well as their free practice accounts. Forex only.	Free data with funded premium account or practice account.
Interactive Brokers	Free data and history with all funded accounts. Data is filtered to reduce bandwidth, and because of that the quality is just "ok". Limited history makes it difficult for anything but daytrading. Requires some extra user maintenance to manage the database.	Free data with funded account. No exchange fees required.
Metastock Xenith	Based on the Thomson Reuters backbone, and offered through Metastock. Users of version 2.17 and later can utilize this feed with our free Xenith59 data connector utility.	$99-$150/month*, depending on options.
eSignal	This data feed still functions within the 2.x series, but we have dropped support for it and do not plan to include it in the upcoming 3.0 revision. If you don't already use it for another platform, we'd recommend going with IQFeed instead.	$120-$206/month*, depending on options.
Google	Free end-of-day data for US stocks only. No real time data available. Better than Yahoo, with fewer errors and much more historical data available. Still a free feed and not completely reliable for serious use.	Free data.
Yahoo	Free end-of-day data for US stocks only, with limited historical data available. No real time data available. Good for fooling around, but not serious trading.	Free data.
