    Any advice on how to get a good discount on CQG ?

    Strange. Can you tell me the names of your brokers at Velocity and RCG and we'll make sure they know how to control risk settings in CQG. You can PM them to me if you don't want to list it publicly. Again, risk and margins are being set by brokers and FCMs. They have 100% rights to set account...

    Any advice on how to get a good discount on CQG ?

    Someone is feeding you wrong information. CQG has the software to perform the risk analysis of the account, but the parameters and rules (as to what to check for) is being set by your broker. Your FCM is accountable for your risk to the exchange, CQG just provides them the tools to do that...

    The charting software dilema

    CQG definitely allows you to do that. You can either create your own indicators using CQG language and then distribute it to others without disclosing the code behind it or you can program your indicators in C++/C# and then embed them into CQG so they look like built-in studies. First option is...

    TT vs CQG data feed coalescing

    CQG has different consolidation rules. Some installations have no consolidation at all, the largest is 50 ms. If you spread, however, client side data delivery is absolutely irrelevant, all CQG spreads are working on the exchange side with no data consolidation or any other type of delay at all.

    CQG's trade platform

    No, the policies on CQGTrader still stay the same. CQG tries to adhere to exchange rules (unlike some other vendors) and do not give away real time data to non trading customers.

    Automated trading with CQG?

    Quote from TraDaToR: Hello, I am tempted to upgrade my trading platform and try CQG integrated client. I read on the website that IC permits backtesting, optimization and automation. Who uses CQG to automate? Lots of people do, I guess most of them are not reading this forum...

    X-Trader vs. CQG Trading

    I think they expect a ruling toward Q1 of next year. My opinion (and I am not a lawyer) is that if you do not make any money on the concept they will not have a case against you. But then, who knows what TT legal team decides to do. So far their enforcement was pretty illogical and...

    X-Trader vs. CQG Trading

    Yeah, all of the above came from the battle with ECCO, the CQG claim along with the one from GL and RCG are in line and will be considered after the eCCO one is resolved. But since they all are pretty much the same everyone is watching the first trial.

    X-Trader vs. CQG Trading

    CQG has two claims - one that the patent is invalid as the cocept of "static" price ladder was created and used in other products before TT and that patenting the UI concept is kind of meaningless. It also claims that its responsive price scale is not static as it moves when the market price...

    X-Trader Brokers

    Mark, I am afraid you have pretty outdated information. CQG has opened up interface a while ago to allow both data extraction from CQG (via CQG API) and to allow people to code up their proprietary studies or conditions into CQG using high level language of their choice. So what Brian used to do...

    Yes, CQG is in a process of rolling out the Auto Spreader product. The main difference between it and other UI based spreader solutions is that its spreading engine is located next to the exchange, so you don't have a penalty of latency for data to get to your client. This also means you can...
