Yeah, thin... but looks workable if your play isn't too big. Wonder, though, about in a hard correction or worse... ?

Yes, each has its own monthly data charge.

What is the CBOT data charge for non-pro? Not that I want to trade it per se, but it has been my observation (and here's a million-dollar tip for all who read this)... that when the market finds a buy or sell spot, they move everything at almost the exact same time. Not at the same velocity mind you, but a trader can get his "buy indication" from the YM and execute his buy in the ES or NQ. None of them diverges from the other for long, generally.

I get the non-pro bundle which includes > Real Time: Non-Professional Market-Depth Bundle (includes all CME, CBOT, NYMEX, COMEX)

$31/mo

That's only $5/mo more than the CME alone. Who is your data vendor if you don't mind my asking?

CQG through AMP

CQG through AMP

Thanks.

YM is CBOT

The CME should just make them all CME...they just want to charge the additional data fees.

That.

It's like any other fast mover in the indices. You'll be as filled as the others. When the shit was going down last march (literally), my limits were filled immediately.

Let's say that besides the CME data, you access data from the CBOT and NYMEX... you pay all of them their exchange fees? (My data package only includes the CME.)
