What option? Which prices? ATM?
Google Finance: Stock market quotes, news, currency conversions & more or finance.yahoo.comHello,
I'm trying to get an option and its underlaying asset hitorical prices data, I tried the links above but without success, so please help me !!
Cordially
I am looking for 5 year CDS spreads on high yield corporate bonds in the energy sector for now, with the highest frequency available. Hopefully liquidity volume a long with it too on the contracts.Depends what exactly you need. As you probably know, MarkIt is the standard vendor in this space but is pricey. Fitch has a similar product (called ValuSpread, which is a horrible name) that is less expensive, and I have had a good experience with their data.
The other possibility is to see if you can get histories from a dealer you perhaps already have a relationship with, but the quality on these will not be as high as services that aggregate across multiple dealers and make determinations about stale quotes and so on. Individual dealers' spreads can differ by a surprising amount from the consensus number, and for thinly traded names may go days without changing at all.
Equity ProductsThanks for your reply,
I'm looking for any option about sp500 or any other index, I tried google & yahoo finance in vain :s
You MUST be specific. Many people her (myself included) could probably help you, but saying
"I need several years of daily observations, at the CMEgroup I found only the today's price"
is MEANINGLESS. I have access to TONS of data, but I have no idea what you really need.
ATM Implied? Smile data? 1000 Dec 2014 SPX puts?
Yeah. Can you be a bit more specific. I can get you options data, but you have to give me a ticker, strike, expiration, something....I need several years of daily observations, at the CMEgroup I found only the today's price
Thanks for your fast reply!Hi @Gijsvd
Sure. Go to http://www.nasdaq.com/
Then put a symbol of the stock (or any instrument) you want to view the historical quotes for. Then find and click Historical Quotes on the left menu options and you will be presented with the table holding the quotes by default for th last 5 days. You can enlarge that history up to maximum 10 years (daily data). You can download it in excel format.
For example the historical quotes for Citigroup common stock is here:

Go to this site: http://www.eoddata.com/default.aspxThanks for your fast reply!
Unfortunately, nasdaq.com can only provide me with historical EOD market data. The data I need is intraday data with a granularity of a few minutes or less. A source for such data would be very welcome!
I tried to download the data, but apparently only platinum members ( $30/month) can download historical intraday data not older than one month . To download intraday data older than a month, and maximum one year old, I will have to pay an extra $120. If I can't find any free data, this is the most valuable option yet. But, since I'm a student, I'd rather find a free or cheaper source.Go to this site: http://www.eoddata.com/default.aspx
Find the Stock exchange you want to download the data from. For example, let it be Nasdaq and in the drop down box above (in downloads section) choose the format you need e.g. spreadsheet (excel). And mark the intervals you need 1 minute, 10 minutes, ... , 60 minutes are the options. And click download but I guess you need to be registered to download it. So you'll be directed to registration form. Fill the gaps and I hope it'll allow you to download. If not, notify me and I'll search for other sites.
Alright, nonetheless, thanks for your help!The least time interval I could find in many areas for free is 1 day. Maybe other members know something.
