Is there an extension that provides futures intraday prices? I don't need streaming. Just need historical prices for backtesting.

The list of available providers is
HERE for you to browse.

Your best choice is IQFeed:

* IQFeed (subscription required)
* Bloomberg Static (Bloomberg subscription required)
* Multi Quote Server, Real-Time and historical data - supported feeds, actual data provider is bundled with client software downloadable from mtiqs.com

I didn't think all of the extensions data providers have intraday futures. Thanks.

Not all, just these three. Bloomberg is pricey, MTiQs is a 3rd party product, and IQFeed is optimal.
