I'm using CQG with another broker. Your rate seems good. Do you have a volume commitment to maintain to keep that rate?

I just had another issue, quotes just stopped, froze up. Logged out then logged back in and was not able to connect. Called CQG and after a couple of minutes got it up and running. CQG says they are having server issues.

No better off here than, IB,Tradestation.

Bottom line all electronic exchanges have issues, you may think you can pay more and get better connectivity but in reality they all have problems.

And no its not my internet connection, IB was running the whole time.
