Forex Kung Fu

I am getting into building my forex platform, and the pinch in my side is becoming dealing with Tic Data.  I have looked into Olsen and Tenfore, but both options seem rather pricey.  I was quoted an Tenfore for two currency pairs for two years at $1400.

Seems like most free data providers, and even some commercial ones like esignal and the like, only have 1M historic data.  Can someone answer the question for me, with all the technology available today, why no one in the community is logging this data for free use? Is there a need for a free repository?

My platform is initially going to be connecting to MBTrading via the FIX protocol - and even there you can’t get any historic quotes…

Where is the quality intra-day forex tic data?? Please post a comment!
