    TOS Alternatives express, I have no idea....

    Interactive brokers provide depth through time and earnings and book trader. Novel Trader has a ladder. For every different exchange you need to to see or trade on with IB you've got subscribe. Many are free some possess an info fee. It's all on the site in market data prices and in account management section.

    I used to trade futures. Most every discount futures broker will offer live customers with totally free datafeed to the electronically traded contracts

    Tradestation
    OpenEcry
    IB
    Futures

    and many more.

    I have acct with OpenEcry. Great choice. I believe 5k to open account or perhaps 2k. Not certain. But you can just open account, and wait a couple of months and then draw most of your funds, only leaving a few hundred dollars . But to be fair, you need to make at least one-two trades with a broker.

    I believe they also offer you a paid presentation acct for $25. And the feed is precisely the same as the live. 14 day free demonion and they are strict about multiple demos to the exact same user.

    elitetrader.com keeps up more with futures brokers.

    Buy the Kinetick Information feed for Ninja Trader. You cannot depend on free handouts in this enterprise.

    To anybody suggesting TOS. . The newspaper accounts you receive (demos) just have real time charting. All thickness and price quotes are delayed. That would not help OP at all with what he wants.

    Amp Clearing has free demos that expire every ~30 days, and also a policy of allowing you to renew your presentation each month as needed. This would be a CQG feed to NT, MC, or CQG Trader... but I would strongly suggest that the NT CQG data demonion because NT has Time and Sales (almost as significant as thickness if your goal is to read market orders, like, not just where orders appear, but exactly what prices people are aggressively executing trades )

    You can go one step farther and find an infinite presentation by opening an account at Amp, unlike other futures brokers, their minimum is only $500 (but please, don't attempt to trade futures to a $500 account, I do not even know why their minimal is so low. . I suppose it's for the e-micro currency futures spot is much more cost effective than e-micro futures which there's nearly no purpose.)

    You wont find a broker that provides perpetual demo accounts, because the CME charges per user to get data unless it's a demo with expiry, so going the financed account path with a minimal deposit requirement is your very best bet.

    Contemplate this: 60 bucks a month to get kinectick NT data == 10 months until you have paid for your data than you would have deposited into an Amp account. Along with the deposit / account would still be yours to keep. Of course, there's the strange inactivity fee you could encounter, but even then it's still a fraction of what you would purchase a data vendor.

    Definitely! To start with, why don't you just paper trade/sim acct futures know you can win until you go live? This really is the cheapest most efficient way to do it.Kintetic and ninja-trader together. I didnt even know they went up to $60 month. Still worth it. Believe or swim and e-signal and all that other garbage are just pricey crap you dont need, particularly just starting out. I started using kintick for the data streaM AND NINJA FOR THE PLATFORM AND TOGETHER THEY ARE AS GOOD AS ANYTHING YOU CAN BUy FOR 5X THE PRICE. You would like to CREATE YOUR OWN SYSTEMS AND DO CODING, iM PRETTY SURE NINJA WILL LET YOU DO THAT. sO WHY PAY tos OR E-SIGNAL MORE. DO YOU INSIST ON getting everything? tHEN OPEN AN ACCT WITH TRADE STATION AND IF YOU DO i THINK ITS 100 ROUND TURNS A MONTH, ALL DATA AND FEES FOPR EVERYTHING IS WAIVED. Plus they have coders it is possible to hire to build your own systems using their easy language propriotary coding.

    Someone tell me I'm wrong. -)

    Bottom line:

    NINJA/KINETIC OR TRADESTATION BROKERS. PERIOD!

    Sorry for the caps. My keyboard is jacked.

    Because real money (reside ) provides a new aspect of trading to take care of? Emotions, fear, greed, etc.. Which all influence a trader handling trades and making reside implementation decisions. Sim feeds are great, but they could never replie what it's like to exchange live in this respect.

    You should buy a new computer keyboard, think about it a'trading' expense.

    But read my earlier article in this thread, you will find free ways of getting real time futures data and sim accounts to perform with.
