Zen Fire Disaster

Completely false!!!!

AMP - NinjaTrader - CQG worked for over a year to develop this solution. CQG has been providing market data and trade routes for over 30 years. With the opportunity to provide this type of technology integrated into NinjaTrader, would be a disservice to our customers if we did not accept.

AMP is constantly expanding our services to meet customer demands.

For example we just added 4 new exchanges for our customers to trade using the NT- CQG integration: (ICE Europe, LIFFE, Sydney and Singapore)

Quote from TerminatorXit:

This entire thread is pretty pathetic. For years AMP pimped Zen Fire like it was the greatest thing since sliced bread. Then AMP realized it controled nothing pimping Ninja and Zen. So they decide to move to CQG to try to create an edge because anyone knows if your really want Zen you go to Mirus not AMP. The very firm (AMP) that help create the Zen Fire brand is now bashing it and pimping CQG. I wonder how long this will last until they are on to somethign else.

At least they have another data feed working with NINJA....
ZenFire is unreliable in fastmaket. CQG is perfect
So who is better? MIRUS with the shit ZenFire or AMP with CQG?

Most of the time its about cost. Zen probably offered AMP better pricing; then AMP realized what a piece of shit it really is and made a deal with CQG(which to me is the Lexus of data feeds, nothing sexy but damn good at what they do)

I don't know any of my other CTA friends that use rhithmic/ZenFire data. They either use TT or CQG.

* in my last post i mentioned AMP only bcuz they offer CQG data(main reason I am with them), Im not shilling for AMP as a broker, they don't need my help for that.
 
My friend uses the Ninja Trader platform with CQG which is available at AMP Futures and he says it works like a watch, to use a russian saying (he was offered Zen-Fire as an alternative and turned it down)... in other words, he says it's seamless, but you must still pay extra for the Chart Trader and ATM Strategy features in Ninja if you want to use them. Zen has been malfunctioning recently for some other traders I talk to in the Russian community.
 
with everyone bashing zen and now moving to cqg, where's the assurance that same issues won't start surfacing in cqg?

any cqg people here?

I don't think the Zen bashing is real just a little over eager CQG/AMP shills - I seem to remember a song..."Don't believe the Hype"
 
I am actually on Skype with my friend and I asked him the same question, since you bring up a good point. He says that he contacted CQG in Moscow about this in the spring and was told that they have reserve servers set up in the main financial centres (Singapore, Tokyo, London, New York, etc.)... about 20 in total. So in case there is a force-majeur incident like an outage, the data would automatically shift over to the next best alternative path using the nearest reserve server. With so many servers, it seems unlikely that a trader would be stuck without data, but who knows, that's just my take.

Hmmm...where there is smoke there usually is a fire. other forums are also complaining about Zenfire. There has to be something going on .

sometimes that smoke strangely coincides with a new competitor showing up in the neighborhood...

you see, the only very recent addition of the integrated cqg/ninja package at many brokers (including GF and AMP) has me wondering what's so bad that could happen to a data provider that only a few months ago was sworn by with many posters.

"other forums" aren't any consolation, and the fact that you have 50> posts and registered only in July isn't either.
