I'm about to try CQG Web API. Question: Since CQG trade data comes via Web API (or Sierra), please assure us that Web API orders-execution
use a separate socket so that a fast market will not cause execution lag by order records delay? Like me, a user a year ago had great
execution with FIX: "I am a very happy user of Sierra Chart with CQG data (CQG FIX). For me, this is the best platform-data combo I have ever used. Excellent speed and reliability, I ike it even more than TT." (cant post link)

A large fast market always gets some trade records lag, even with "allow server to drop some data".
A quick or auto "Flatten" can avoid trading on old data, if and only if the trade connection or socket is separate and instantaneous.
With FIX and separate Web API data feed, fast markets did not delay a flatten.
