How to get the realtime intraday backfill data?

Many of us know that google provides 15 day intraday 1min backfill. But where is the source how the softwares like volume digger getting those backfill data?

The below link gives the realtime backfill data which most of the softwares are probably using it as a source for realtime datafeed

 
http://www.google.com/finance/getprices?q=RELIANCE&x=NSE&i=60&p=5d&f=d,c,o,h,l&df=cpct&auto=1&ts=1266701290218

where

q= stock symbol on Google finance
x= exchange symbol
i= interval (here 60 means 60 sec (1 minute interval))
p= no of period(here 5d denotes 5 days of data)
f= parameters (day, close, open, high and low)
df= difference (cpct is may be in % change )
auto =1,
ts = time start… if you cut the last 4 digits…the rest gives the start day in seconds

you can choose your own set of value depending upon your need.

The following link gives the 1 min Realtime data for Nifty

http://www.google.com/finance/getprices?q=.NSEI&x=NSE&i=60&p=15d&f=d,o,h,l,c,v

Using the above explanation we can build any formats(1min,5min, 15min,hourly) of real time data and can be use as a backfill
to feed charting softwares like Amibroker, Metastock, Ninja Trader etc

  5. Dear Sir,

    Thank you for your wonderfull and lucid posts.

    Appreciate if you can give the link where to find the procedure
    for feeding real time google data to Amibroker.

    I have been scanning each of your page from last and have reached up to 176 but still not found the same…

    However during this scanning I have come across many posts which have
    truly enlightened me.

    I have downloaded Motivewave but find that it is slow and the data
    does not auto upload (at least today), one has to manually refresh the page to get the latest quotes and charts.

    Please let us know how to feed google downloaded as per above post to Amibroker (manually or auto)..

    Best regards,

  17. Hello Rajandran Sir,

    I have found that many companies are selling historical quotes of “FUTURE OF INDIVIDUAL STOCK” ; I think they must be bluffing as it could be approximation but for sure not authentic one.

    As future quote would have 3MONTHS contract for each stock on a given day, so which means they have to store 3 data points for every minute. If we take option into view the scenario becomes even complicated.
    SO MY WILD GUESS is that; they are bluffing about having historical data of “f&o” quotes.

    SIR, if you have seen these historical F&O from these acclaimed data provider ? Please let me know your view or your experience with historical F&O quotes.

    With Best Regards,

  24. Hi,
    Is there a way to get this data in real time to excel? Just to calculate real time PL of futures positions.

    Is MCX, NSE CDS futures real time data available?

  28. I ‘ve used Google Finance to download realtime data. But what I want from datafeed is last 1 minute data, for ex. if there is a data of 1 whole day which is around 374 lines, I just want last 1 line and not all the lines. Or is it possible to extract a particular time line (i.e. 12.30 minute) from Google finance. I mean olny one line and not the full data from 9.15 to 12.30

  29. Please note that the data is returned in CHLO format rather than OHLC immaterial of the order of parameters passed.

      • Is there a way to generate a bhavcopy of all nse stocks for today(current day) at particular time say 3.00pm. basically i need open,high,low,close,vol of all nse stocks around 3pm. ie it should have the open, high,low,close and volume of that day till 3pm.
        Pls tell me if there is a way. thank you in advance

        • John,
          Bhavcopy is generated by NSEindia website. If you need to get the OHLC values around 3p.m one way is to get the realtime data for NSE Cash market and other way is to get the data from your trading terminal like NEST or ODIN or NSENOW.

    • hello rajendran,
      I need a small help in creating a simple afl in amibroker for my requirement. Idont know writing afl language, I found 3/10 oscillator afl from net.
      _SECTION_BEGIN(“My 3/10 Osc”);
      m=MA(Close,3)-MA(Close,10);
      Plot( m, “My 3/10 Osc”, colorRed );
      s=MA(m,16);
      Plot(s,”Signal”,colorBlue);
      Plot(0,””,colorWhite,styleDashed);
      _SECTION_END();

      My requirement is:
      1. afl should be able to help in scanning and exploring list of stocks that had positive and negative crossover. witth heading ” cross over” and results as ” positive crossover” “negative cross over”
      2.There should be an option to find out where the previous cross over occurred. Was it above zero line or below zero line. In scanning and exploring results I would like to have two column displaced with “previous cross over” as heading and results as “above zero line” “below zero line”
      3. I want create a green arrow in positive cross over and red arrow in negative cross over in chart.

      It would be of great help if you could write it for me. I hope it would not take more than a minute for you.

      Thank you very much in advance

  37. Hello Rajendran,
    Where can I get the information of Circuit limits of different stocks. say if I want to find out all NSE stocks that are with 20% circuit limit, where can I see. Checking each and every stock seperate is tedious and getting to know after hitting 20% upper circuit limit is missing a rally. Please let me know if you have any idea. Thanks

  38. Rajenran,
    Can you please tell me the afl to scan 50 DMA
    and also please guide me on which parameter do i need to change to scan for 30 DMA/100DMA/200DMA from the afl of 50DMA afl. It would be really great if you could reply as early as possible. Thanks

  39. I think something weird happens when I change the interval parameter in the query. If you notice the last entry, the OHLC values remain the same even after changing the interval. I don’t see why this should be like that.

    Maybe I am not able to understand the exact meaning of column one.

    Also I need Real Time feed. How do i get that done? Do you guys sell “just” the real time data. I don’t need a software. I just need a csv/excel file.

  46. Hi Rajandran,,
    Thanx for sharing this info. For trading I am using Trade Tiger. They are providing data (for all intraday periods) but it is tedious job to import that into amibroker manually. So I was searching for live intraday data provider. There are companies which provide this data but reliability is poor and also are very costly.

    Using above info I developed dot net software to download data from google and import in amibroker. I am downloading 5 mins data for my favourite 30 scrips. I am a intraday tarder and I work only on 15 min candles. All my trading strategies include 15 min candles. So even google is providing delayed data it is not affecting my trading strategies and decision making. [Sometimes I miss opportunites due to delayed data. but you know that there are always plenty of opportunities.]

    Last one year I am using this system to download data from google and only 2-3 times I was unable to download because of server problems otherwise it is working fine. So I am vey happy and really satisfied by GOOGLE data. and credit goes to you MR. Rajandran.

    Thanx once again and GOOGLE ki Jai HO.

  59. GOOGLE API “getprices” is NO more fetching intraday data (say 5 minute or 15 minute or 30 minute or 60 minute …). It is only fetching data in 1day interval irrespective of interval you set (say i=300 or 900 or 1800 or 3600).
