Free data sources can be enough for end of day charts and casual testing. For live intraday trading, free sources are usually delayed, limited in history or hard to keep running, so most active traders move to a paid real-time feed.
Amiprofits offers a free 3-day demo (extendable to 5 days), so you can compare it with your free source before paying ₹699 a month. New users pay ₹449 for the first month.
Free vs paid AmiBroker data: six differences
- Speed. Free sources often update with a delay. A paid real-time feed updates as the market moves. Amiprofits delivers up to 100 updates a second.
- Intraday history. Free sources rarely give deep 1-minute history. Amiprofits includes 1 year of 1-minute backfill.
- End of day history. Many free sources cover end of day data well. Amiprofits includes 20 years of end of day data.
- Reliability. Free sources can change format or stop working without notice. A paid provider is responsible for keeping the feed running.
- Support. Free sources have no support. Amiprofits support is 24/7 on WhatsApp and live chat, with AnyDesk installation help.
- Cost. Free costs nothing but your time. The Amiprofits plan is ₹699 a month, and a yearly plan is ₹6999.
