@sam028 I am guessing if netstat shows no Chicago IP's. I should assume my order is being routed somewhere else first other than Chicago? Do you think that is a correct assumption?

Is there a way to make Continuum (Mirus/Dorman) to work with MutliCharts?

Let's see this with PM or email, we're going a bit off-topic .
I also have some details for you, if you want, as we share the same large network pipes and had details about some congested peering routes (problem solved yesterday).

I have been using Continuum and my fills have been fine. But I have gotten a couple of disconnects every day during trading. The disconnects are a problem and what makes it worse is the feed is not automatically connecting back in NT to the primary server. The connection status box stays red and you have to manually reconnect.

I really like the server side OCO on Continuum but a reliable feed that stays connected during trading hours is a must. I am going to let run for a few more days then probably go back to rithmic. Rithmic rarely gets disconnects during trading hours and if it does usually reconnects right away. Hoping eventually will be able to get server side OCO on rithmic as it has been a great feed for me most of the time.

Yep...I have had a few disconnects as well.
I understand that no data feed is perfect, but I have had more small "hiccups" with Continuum in the month of Feb than I generally have over a much longer period. I know my Internet connection did not drop....(have a small ping script running)....and when I shifted to my backup Internet provider...(just to check)....the same thing happened. Two different cable internet connections....same disconnect. Fortunately these have not been frequent, but after the events of January (with Zenfire) any connection related issues at all start making me a bit nervous.

We will be releasing R22 in the upcoming weeks which reduces the sensitivity of reporting disconnects for both Continuum and CQG.

@NinjaTrader How about getting that out in next few days instead of weeks? Weeks is a long time when customers having issues like this that are very disruptive to trading.

I'm sure they would if they could but at the same time i am sure you would want them to thoroughly test the change, document it within their systems and communicate it properly and these things do take time. I'm glad they are giving us advanced notice that they recognize a problem and are working to resolve it in the best manner possible rather than helter-skelter patches which often times can create as many problems as they solve. NinjaTrader is not new to this and they know what needs doing.

That said, I can well understand the frustration of disconnects....

@Tasker_182 they have been working on r22 for weeks. @NinjaTrader

Seems like the last few releases have created a variety of problems. I understand various tweaks etc but lately the NT problems have been costing me money. So it is beyond frustration it is expensive and affecting my business.

Not to belabour the point but for those very reasons you've stated I would want NinjaTrader to get it right (and of course as quick as possible, often a conflict between time/quality when your business is hurting).

@Tasker_182 I get what you are saying. But I was told a few weeks ago that r22 would be out in a few weeks. Now @NinjaTrader comes here and says a few more weeks. If it takes a few more weeks will be a month or more which is an unacceptable amount of time for NT to get a fix done. Thus my frustration.

This probably not the thread for this. So I am going to refrain from continuing to pitch back and forth. Although would like @NinjaTrader to respond with more info.
