Esignal data and IB data

T

traderguy02

I have esignal as a data feed and charting software. My broker is IB. I am trying to trade the oil e-mini QM. I have noticed that at some times the price difference between data coming from esignal and that coming from IB can be different by as much as 10 cents. I certainly find this odd and extremely counter-productive to trading. Can anyone explain this and offer a realistic solution?

thanks
 
Sometimes IB update is slower (<5% of the time), sometimes eSignal update is slower (>95% of the time).

And also IB doesn't update each tick. When market is busy, eSignal can seriously lag or become completely frozen.
