1) is this expected that (reportedly) free data still requires card data for payment? See this order for EURUSD data from FXCM
2) do I understand correctly if My Data contains data down to tick resolution but algo selects by minute, Lean won't provide automatic consolidator and one should be provided by the user?

1) Correct; a credit card is required for ID verification.
2) Correct it is not built that way, it's a nice idea but consolidation isn't a simple science. Knowing which ticks to filter to build the bars; or which ticks to mark as the open and close, etc is actually pretty tricky.Â
