    Rithmic data latency issue

    Two issues I see that you didn't really describe: 1. You are in Korea trying to access US sites. I think therein lies your issue. You've got a lot of intermediate networks involved to get to your destination. Throw in 1% packet loss along the way and things get ugly very quick. 2. Your PC...

    Rithmic data latency issue

    Not necessarily your ISP. I assume both computers are wired via Ethernet (not via WiFi). Could be one (or more) of several issues: Your PC/drivers (I've seen a laptop using WiFi improve its throughput and ping time tremendously by ensuring the internal WiFi device's power savings mode was...

    PSA: Free things are not free !!

    Prepared traders have multiple brokers and therefore the ability to hedge against/mitigate these events. It's not a matter of if but when it will happen. Same with your computer. Do you have a fully functioning second system you can use? What about your Internet? Got something there too...

    What sort of trader can't afford an air conditioner to keep room temps nominal? A trader that can't afford to trade.

    Dollar volume probably somewhat better - the lower-priced ETFs weighting would be distorted.

    Looking for EOD option data for entire option chains (with daily CSV download)

    50MB isn't massive. Just write a bit of code to filter it. Can't code? Outsource the coding. Would be a tiny project.

    Market update 2/9 3 of 3

    I'm questioning your methodology, not who produces the chart. What does DorseyWright do in this area? Can't find much about what they do other than they create some stuff that ETF managers license.

    Market update 2/9 3 of 3

    Beware of Garbge in-garbage out (and old programming term). You appear to be using the Stockcharts version of the indicator which includes ALL securities traded on NYSE including warrants, preferreds, debt and other weird constructs. When I last looked, this was about 20% of the listings on...

    API for Cash Prices?

    Cash prices are just that - a sampling point from somewhere. Not necessarily indicative of anything outside of that sampling point. Interesting, yes. Tradeable - no. You probably won't even get details on the source or volume involved. Futures is where it really TRADES. PS - you are a...

    A real edge hardly requires any testing

    So, you've only been successful in during a sustained uptrend in a bull market and think you know it all. Say hello to selection bias. My oven is on - got some humble pie cookin'
