Happy Monday Traders! Please be aware that the open registration for the July open enrollment (August start date) for Edge Pools is ending in TWO days!

To take advantage of the full year and current enrollment period, your account must be opened and the Edge Pool contracts returned by August 1st. Any volume traded after July 22nd will count towards your groups annual threshold.
Happy trading!

Since you work with TT, I wanted to ask if you are supporting the Sierra Chart Order-Routing Service with Data as this is (as I understand it) essentially a set of TT services consisting of backend-execution as well as SC's Denali Exchange Data Feed being TT-based as well if I'm not mistaken. [EDIT: the Denali market data-feed is NOT TT-based according to the docs linked, I misread them).
Are these services something you support and do you have any opinions about these data and execution implementations?
I know @FuturesTrader71 has spoken kindly of DTN IQFeed's (non-executable) market-data in the past and I wonder if there is any useful comparison or pros/cons vs Denali you guys wanted to share?
Thanks and have a great upcoming week!

The following 2 users say Thank You to snax for this post:
Thank you for reaching out. We fully support the Sierra Chart order-routing service with data. Your Edge Clear account will be executing through the TT order routing service with the Denali data feed powering your charts. The Denali data feed provides full market depth data (up to 1400 levels) for CME, CBOT, Nymex, and Comex which we look at as an advantage.
We believe DTNIQ Feed is one of the best data feeds in the industry, but as you mentioned, it is not an execution feed. Meaning, we still need to be set up with an order routing service for execution. This is where TT and Sierra come into play.
All in all, we have really enjoyed working with the combination of Sierra and TT. Please contact us to be introduced to your personal broker at Edge Clear for more details on how to get started: https://edgeclear.com/contact-us/
We look forward to hearing from you!
Thanks!
