Then open an account with AGN Futures... They have free data whether you do 0 trades or 1000 trades. And really good tick data too.

A few questions, if you don't mind....

How much is the monthly fee if you purchased the lifetime license?

Is there back-fill historical data available? Minute or tick data? And how long back?

AGN Futures? Whom do they clear thru? Who are they an IB for? Transact? Open E Cry?

They are not a broker; they are a charting platform.

No monthly fee if you have the lifetime license.

Is there back-fill historical data available? Minute or tick data? And how long back?

Depends on which data vendor you use. Since they are a charting platform, they do not provide data. They can plot both time, tick and volume based charts.

AGN Futures? Whom do they clear thru? Who are they an IB for? Transact? Open E Cry?

They are not a broker.

This might be easier to visit their website and read for yourself. All your questions and more are answered there. http://www.tssupport.com/multicharts/

Nope, it looks like an IB for Transact, if what I see on this page is correct:

http://www.agnfutures.com/html/open_account.htm

Note the open account link on that page goes to Transact Futures.
