Arnold:
Omega provides a vast amount of tick data, for both indexes and
stocks and commodities. Their site contains close to two years of tick
data and end of day data, but you will need TradeStation or SuperCharts
and the data is not always totally reliable. But for a "zero' cost, you
can't really complain.
