Is The Data Reliable?

Since it’s free data, you’ll not get from us any kind of warranty or certification. Use the data at your own will and risk.

But, to give you a hand on any possible headache, for EACH file you download, you’ll be able to get its status. The file status will tell you:

  • The Maximum GAP found in miliseconds;
  • All the gaps (in seconds) that you’ll be able to find inside the files;
  • The average tick interval in miliseconds;

(Keep in mind that some of the gaps can be due to normal Forex Trading pause periods.)

We’re measuring all the gaps bigger than 1 minute. It’s normal that you’ll find gaps in average of > 90 seconds when the market is with low trading volumes.
