MultiCharts with DTN IQfeed

It's back adjusted data. http://www.premiumdata.net/support/futurescontinuous2.php

http://www.tssupport.com/multicharts/datafeeds/ DTN is my recommendation, I think it gives the best price/performance combination. (Note that the information on TSS site is out of date there is now 30 days of tick history)

I usually monitor about 40 symbols using DTN IQfeed and MultiCharts and don't experience any lag compared to my IB feed on another PC. MultiCharts does use about 30-40% of my quad core processor when the market is fast. Does IRT multi thread using both cores? I think it's probably an IRT/IQ...

When was that brownsfan019, I've been using DTN for 2 years and only had one outage. Seems pretty reliable to me.

They only list themselves as they may match your order with another IB customer.

It was an IB problem, I contacted support and the only response I got was. "We are aware of this problem" Shame they didn't update the system status until it had been down for half an hour.
