| | Any recommendations for tick level datafeed providers (stocks, futures) and rough idea of the pricing and delivery method? I know the DTN satellite feed is reasonably priced, but I think there is a chance that you will miss ticks here and there with that (don't think they republish them on that service either).
I'm interested in monitoring and research on roughly 700 symbols using 1 second bars. I've got a about 20 decently configured computers that I can use for this project. |

With that kind of project size, I'd say go for the best data, not the cheapest. |

Yep... not looking for cheapest exactly (or I'd probably go with the sat feed), but the price ranges on tick level fees can range from reasonable to ridiculous. Hoping to find a couple in the reasonable range so that I can have a backup data source live as well. |

What is the C2 Score?
Collective2 rates every trading advisor in its database and assigns a score between 100 and 1000.
In general, a rating above 500 is good. A rating above 700 is excellent.
Collective2 Ratings are recalculated daily based on the entire performance history in our database. The exact formula we use is proprietary, but there are several key variables that go into the Collective2 Rating. One of the most important factors is the length of time we have been able to observe the performance of the trader. Another key factor is the amount by which the trader over-performs or under-performs the S&P 500 index. Finally, the choppiness of the trader's results is taken into account. Certainly a more consistent trader will be rated more highly than a trader with erratic results.
