I switched to NM data for EURUSD and it has better spread than FXCM and others provider's I've tried.

You already know this but I'm writing it anyway for other people to see.

I wish I had a source to offer you to include in NM, but sadly I don't.

FXCM still has huge gaps this year and last year. I think the same gaps exist but I'm not sure.

You never gave an update and I'm assuming that the data is still bad. Maybe related to this, NM refused to load my last backtest (which was also EURUSD from FXCM) because it was corrupted.

Sounds good, thanks.

Thanks.
