Mini Nikkei Futures?

Does anyone have access to mini Nikkei futures data? Unfortunately tradestation does not provide this data. I am looking to obtain a snapshot of a weekly, daily, 30min, 5min, and 30min market profile chart (approx 10 days back) of the mini Nikkei. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Re: Mini Nikkei Futures?

IB provides the data but you need to subscribe to the Osaka Securities Exchange for about $10 a month. I don't subscribe any more. I have eSignal 15 minute data is a .csv file for the full-sized Nikkei between 24/10/06 and 15/01/07 if that's any interest to you. The full sized and the mini have practically identical data as they're both electronic contracts.

You can get a week of historical data from IB by downloading their TWS software and using the username edemo and the password demouser. Symbol for mini Nikkei is N225M.

Re: Mini Nikkei Futures?

Unfortunately the demo account will only go back to up to a week. If possible, I would like to see a daily and weekly chart for both the N225 and N225M. Thanks

For daily and weekly charts you might just want to look at the cash index.
