Just out of curiousty, not sure if someone's asked or answered already, but how much does the full CQG suite cost, roughly? Per month? Including charting and streaming news?
I'm a current reuters user and have a package setup specifically for commodities (energy), but also includes FX and equity index quotes. Does anyone know if CQQ offers something similar?
I think CQG is around $600 a month. But there are a number of brokers that offer the platform to their clients. What the conditions are I don't know.http://www.cqg.com/Electronic-Trading/Trade-with-FCM-Partners.aspx
I don't know what Reuters product you are using (3000, Reuters Trader etc.). I had a Reuters terminal in my apartment for 10 years up until 2 or 3 years ago. When I started using it their charting was the best available anywhere. But over the years they made only very minor improvements to where it is now light years behind the others. I'm talking about their premium charting. The Athena charts that they use in their less costly products is nothing more than a toy.
I once took a CQG demo If you are interested in CQG mainly for the charting, I would question if it is worth the price given what you could get from others vendors, or a number of vendors all together, for much less. I understand that their data is quite dependable.
Hope this helps.
