I'm trying to get high-resolution data (second, minute) for FX, like EUR/USD, but nothing shows up past 11/1/2016, no matter what i'm running. Is recent data a premium feature or is it just not available yet? I'd really like to be able to trade my strategies live, but I can't do that if there's no realtime data...
Should I be importing custom data from elsewhere instead? And how would I go about doing so, while making sure i'm running in realtime for live?
