I have Data bull for Amibroker. Gives only 60 days F&O data for 500 Rs. I found this quite reliable.

For my MT4, I think its some alpha something. So far so good.

For my MT5, its some one else. I dont even remember
Wow !!!using 3 softwares and 3 data providers for your trades...Please throw some light on using these softwares @a time....

Well.. For me the rule is simple. Whichever side price breaksout after the doji, I go long/short. Stops are place a few ticks above/below the high/low of the doji. If you are fast you can really pick some good winners. Doji breaks on daily charts give very nice moves. Will see if I can post a daily chart later.

Yes kept it as 8.31 as in first fifteen minute candle we can take decision and those are vital many time .. if we wait for hrly candle to finish most moves are over..

Pls throw some light if i m wrong i shall correct it.
Nothing wrong brother. Each & every data can be tweaked to fulfil the diff needs.

In your case, let me give you a few scenario :

- 1st trader trades BO of 1st 15 min and then later his strategies is based on Hourly candle. In such scenario keeping 8:30 will serve is purpose.

- 2nd trader trades BO of 1st Hourly candle (9:15-10:15). For him this is the correct setting. Or lets say that person trades swing, then this is the correct setting.

- Someone trading based on candle patterns, it will make big difference because OHLC will vary and therefore the candles will form differently. (again candles are no 100% confirmation.)

- Some traders have some AFL based method which requires first 15 min range, high low etc.

Now who will this may not matter - someone trading pivots. Lets say I trade 5 min pivots. It won't matter to me because the pivots high/low will not change coz of the data.


So going back to my original point. It really depends on what is your methods of trading. If you trade is not based on ORB or some AFL etc, you should always keep market open time - market close time.

Hope this clarifies :)

No light to throw. Only money to throw away on 3 vendors:D

On a serious note, Sometimes computers crash, Data doesnt refresh, Internet stops so as a full time trader, its always good to have back up. Thats all there is to it.
