Hi,
I am having trouble to configure a DOM using IQfeed data and trades taken through CTS.
Documentation is clear, but I have not found a way overcome the different way the feeds send the price (ES is 1600.00 on IQFeed, 160000 on CTS).
Here is what I do:
- Two instances installed, source for data (IQFeed), destination for trading (CTS). Each work ok separately.
- Open Trading DOM on destination instance with main symbol set to remote IQfeed symbol, and Real-time Alternate symbol to the local CTS symbol.
- On General setting: set Use Non chart data from remote instances to ON (because I want the IQfeed better price/bid/ask/volume on the DOM...).
- If I take a trade the DOM will send the IQFeed price to CTS servers (1600 instead of 160000 …).
- If I set the Use Non chart data from remote data to OFF the order will be ok but the DOM is not updated by the better quality IQfeed price/bidask... so IQFeed is of no use…
Please advise.

We do see the problem and this has to do with the Real-Time Price Multiplier. We will see how to resolve this.

However, the CTS T4 data feed is a good data feed. Why would you need to use IQ Feed?

Thank you for your quick answer.

I am no expert in data feeds, and had no intention to say CTS was a bad feed. Sorry for that.
As far as I know and believe, compared to IQFeed, CTS is as good for real time price action, and a little less precise for real time volume per price.

The main point of the question was the data + trading separation of the feeds. Maybe IQFeed+IB would have been a better example :)

It is going to take us some time to implement a solution for this. Should not be more than a month though.
