I like TT (Trading Technologies)
They do offer solutions for connecting direct to the gateways. I fiddle around wish some simple api stuff myself.

It seems one still needs to run either a Windows-based API or FIX adapter. Isn't there ANY linux friendly realtime streaming market data provider, apart from OpenTick and the institutional ones?Quote from covered_call:

This is really disappointing.
eSignal, DTN, CQG, TT, none of the retail data vendors contacted offer anything I need. At this (developmental) stage I just don't need a direct exchange feed or an institutional(ly priced) solution.
Running a Windows box just to handle feeds (and communicate with brokers - the number of retail brokers offering linux-friendly solutions is plain disappointing too) kind of defeats the whole point of running a linux box.
Any other suggestions?

Yes, but please show me what data providers and/or retail brokers offer a true socket connection, that is not in fact handled by their windows based API.Quote from plodder:
FIX may get you there. Quickfix.
To avoid windows you need an \\\"API\\\" that is socket (tcp/ip) based, not windows dll based.
Time, money and ingenutiy can solve any problem.
TT talk of FIX support, which in fact boils down to a (Windows-based) adapter.
