    MT team, looks like dxfeed a great addition feed,

    any one has comments or compare the dxfeed to 

    IB/TD/Webull feed  in the first 5 minutes during  market open

    (9:30-9:35am EST)? 

    currently I face data lag issues(TDA,etc) only occurs on the first 5

    minutes during open. Thanks

     

    I have IB and sometimes i use too the feed from Webull. This one (Dxfeed) is by far better in speed ; its tick by tick data, and with no symbol limits. Plus have a limited lvl2 data included. I have the 49 usd subscription, which includes aggregated data from all exchanges.

    Yesterday no problems at the open. 

    Overall, very satisfied. At the moment seems even better than Quotemedia Connect, perhaps similar to Iqfeed in speed. 

  2. Subscribed to  dxfeed  (49 usd, consolidated data )  .

    Testing it .Really  fast , and at the moment, seems better than Quotemedia connect (i dont know the limit of symbols i can use per watchlist , but now i'm using a 1100+ list realtime without problems). A limited lvl2 is included with this subscription .

    The datafeed is active from 04:00 Am .

    will see about that. NOTE: I changed my display of the fills from triangles to dots. Makes them far less obtrusive. you can do that on SETTINGS / CHARTS / DISPLAY - in the TRADING section

    The triangles are ok Jerry; what i mean, is to cut the lines (as in screenshots), leaving just the triangles. Imagine a daytrader (or a scalper) who have severals fills in the same day , maybe even in 2 or more consecutive candles. Triangles are little.

    Hi guys.

    Its possible to modify the current "filled orders"  visual format , cutting the line and leaving only the little triangle below the order filled? .

    The reason is , with multiple entries in a very little time frame, the chart becomes too crowded  and so much confusion.

    Thx.

    Goog :)

     

    This is a great oportunity to integrate their market scanner feed  https://dxfeed.com/market-search/dxfeed-radar/ and https://dxfeed.com/market-search/dxfeed-alert-service/ , to have the ability to scan the whole  market (server side) .

     

    (Benzinga Pro actually have both features , they work very  very good and should be "cheap" to subscribe, compared with other services as Trade ideas, scanz etc))

    :)

    Yeah I saw it before (speaking of which, we will be "dxFeed's Medved Trader" soon - that is, we will have dxFeed available in MT).

    I am really not sure

    1. what EXACTLY is being shown. It looks like a huge mess... and

    2. Since there is no such thing as historical depth of market, the only way to construct that chart is to turn it on and have it accumulate.?

    Hi Mike; could you give us more info about this news pls? , will it be only one more datafeed for MT or the integration will be more extensive (example: they have also a market scanner server side that can be integrated ).

    Or are you and Jerry selling the Mt to them?   thx.

    No MIke; Ninjatrader do that with the same datafeeds ( IQfeed, IB etc etc) . I have another platform called Agenatrader and the same,  i just use ib datafeed with only 100 symbols to run it.  Yes, must be reloaded to update the symbols, but its possible to set an autoreload every x minutes.

    I dont say its easy,  but yes its possible.

    Most probable the platform scans just the % change (and perhaps  last and volume data)  for all symbols subscribing and unsubscribing until  a list is created, filtering only the first 50/100 gainers and continuing only with them subscribed.

    You can easily check both platforms. Ninjatrader its free for papertrade and agenatrader its free the first month to try. You can use my IB papertrade account as datafeed.

     

     

    Honestly this ability is what really MT needs to be a standalone platform for all kind of traders. As today, momentum plays are not playable with MT without an additional software/scanner. And of course there is the problem of the number of ticket for each datafeed; having this capability a 100's datafeed should be enough . I think you and Jerry are underestimating this need.

    The problem with that is that in order to create such lists you have to have internal access to the whole universe of stocks' wide pipe. Brokerages do. We don't.

  9. You can have an account not for trading and still use their market data on MT. You dont need a funded account, you just need an email. Just pay for lvl2 total view (after their free month).

    Thanks, that make sense now. Inconvenient, but what can you do, will keep checking in TWS.

    IB gives one month free trial for every  news services; you can try those   with the "via API"  and check if its good for you.
