Where to get historical minute spaced data? - 10/28/17 00:46

So I've got the minute spaced data for SPX from the Zorro front page.
But I wonder, where can I get same sort of minute spaced historical data for other assets as well? Preferably for free?
Looking on stooq, they only have daily data as shortest interval, as far as I can tell.
Thanks for any suggestion!

I am attempting to accomplish the same objective. As i type, I am downloading 'all data' asci zip file from STOOQ as attempting to include my Canadian stocks with Zorro S.

note: support is non existent unless you email support. I see so many attempts here for reaching solutions I makes me think back to my software engineering when I called for support from companies like MSoft only to hear myself think out my solution and pay them for listening.

Wait, so you found minute spaced data on STOOQ? Where exactly?

My advice would be to find a decent service and pay for it.
I've spent so much time trying to find 1 min data for free, and it's just not worth the effort.
I've used IQFeed when needed.

If you really want free, try histdata.com. They have some index futures and lots of fx data for free. No idea about the quality though.

These two look free.

Here some forex pairs to download

I don't know if any of this is good.

That IQFeed website looks straight from 1998. Probably most beautiful in Netscape browser.

Yeah, but I think the quality of IQFeed data is more important than the look of the homepage 😉
