Post From: Bitcoin Market Data Feed is Now Available

Please fix your slow and now basically always-outdated Bitcoin feeds.

My charts used to update in/near realtime. Then we were all forced to upgrade to 1050 because you at Sierrachart changed something. You clearly changed things to the worse.

I see this new version has something called Bitcoin Data (all services) and this is listed as "Not available in package". Bitcoin feeds is why I subscribed to SierraChart in the first place, but I guess you want more money or something. I do not know how the quality of this feed is.

Here is the current situation with the other feeds: Trade data is now 25-30 seconds delayed for Bitstamp and BTCChina. I don't know how delayed quotes for that clowncar MtGox is but I guess the situation is about the same.

Try this yourselves: Go to Bitcoinity, which is free, and look at the trades. Compare it with SierraChart. You'll quickly see that trades appear at Bitcoinity 25-30 seconds before they appear in SierraChart. Again, Bitcoinity is free, SierraChart is not, yet both Bitcoinity and Bitcoinwisdom now provide data noticably faster than SierraChart.

Sierra did update in a timely fashion before, trades used to appear in Sierra at the same time and sometimes sligly before Bitcoinity and Bitcoinwisdom. Now they both update half a minute before SierraChart does.

My Sierra current subscription ends 2014-02-10. I will not be renewing if SierraChart is still showing old quotes when it's time to renew.
