Intra-day Data for Excel

Does anyone know where to get Intra-day data for Excel? Preferably free, but if not that's fine too. Looking ideally for forex data, but commodities and equities will do. Website I used to use isn't working anymore.

Thanks

Re: Intra-day Data for Excel

It is free (satisfied one of your requirements), but I don't know if it can be connected to Excel.

I have not tried it and do not know its quality.

Re: Intra-day Data for Excel

I'm beginning to sound like an interactive brokers salesman but it feeds starlight into Excel using DDE or OLE (which is called something else nowadays). Note its 'real time data' is actually aggregated into 200milliseconds (from memory) chunks.

Re: Intra-day Data for Excel

most brokerages have a download data option which is quite simple. I have searched for public data on this in the past and could not find it.

I saw someone say that barchart.com allows this but at the time, I couldn't figure that out:

ANF has clean data on a 1-minute basis for eminis, yen, FX, NQ & ER going back to the inception of the contracts. Downloads into excel and inexpensive.

Re: Intra-day Data for Excel

Forex Historical Data has tons (going back to 1980) of free intraday forex data in CSV format that can be uploaded to a spreadsheet (at least I assume it can).
