The very broker that sponsors this forum has been down for the past fifteen minutes

My AMP connection is thru CQG and again I had no issues.

WTF...Only been with them for a month and this already happens. Is this normal with them(AMP futures)? Pretty piss poor IMO, usually takes a pretty long time with any broker to experience this.

Use your backup broker.

There is no broker that gives you perfect service.

I’m on email lists for the CME and CQG. I was not told of any issues. I have to assume this was local to one customer if no one else here had issues.

Terrible assumption

AMP DOESN'T CONTROL ANYTHING, NOT THE CME, NOT THE DATA ROUTING, NOT THE TRADING PLATFORMS.

If you notice shit breaking, contact the tech support for whatever it is that's broke.

THEY'RE THE ONES WHO MAKE THE DECISIONS ON WHO'S FEED TO SUPPLY. IF THE FEED ISN'T DEPENDABLE THEY NEED TO SHOP AROUND. IT'S A PART OF RUNNING A PROPER BROKERAGE.

Buy why the hell would you wanna contact tech support when they don't control anything?

Well, in addition to CGQ, AMP futures also offer Rithmic and TT for extra fee. So if you want better data, you can do just that. Moreover, AMP ain't the only FCM in town. There are many similar outfits like Ninja, Ironbeam, etc.

You should realize certain feeds have certain markets and work with certain platforms. I can always go to a different broker or even trade a different asset even at that matter. Or not even trade at all and go fishing every day.

The angrier you are, the more $$$ you'll lose.

"You". Was that directed at yourself?

Because its just the thing to do.

Was done at the perfect moment I was waiting for a break-out in gold.....40 points later it came conveniently back on.

Buy some GLD in your securites account elsewhere.
