Excellent post, badvlad. :)

Yep, it's a pretty stark contrast. The times, they are a changing.

I will attempt to clarify; Zen-Fire for CME mini's ( ES/NQ/etc ) is faster than TT. Zen-Fire data for Eurex is slower than TT. In any case, Zen is not a feasible alternative for me while the '99' issue remains unresolved. This is the conclusion of my own side-by-side testing of Zen vs...

The quality of the TT data you receive will depend upon who is maintaining the TT server you are receiving from, how much aggregation they use, their hardware, etc. For e-mini's on NinjaTrader I have seen nothing faster nor fuller than Zen-Fire data. Eurex, though, is another story. TT...

Hi guys. Quick question, hypothetical situation; If I were to put a 1 contract buy stop in on the ES at 1345.75, and someone else were to come in a few minutes later and put in a 100 contract order at the same price, do they jump ahead of me in the queue to be filled? As the title...

1680x1050 i.e. the maximum res of the monitor.

Bit of an old thread now but I'll add my bit for any future readers who may find it useful; I'm running Samsung 226BW's on a NVS 440 graphics card and couldn't be happier. Great screens, no eye strain, lovely. Do it.
