That is correct, however, if your CQG broker uses the Chicago server for risk management, you might as well connect to via USA directly.

Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
I am not sure of your current arrangement, but if your experience is based on "once or twice" figuratively speaking, then I can tell you that everyone has experienced latency issues in one form or another. This is not enough to change the infrastructure you are on.
Let's separate stability issues and latency issues. They are related, but stability has to prevail first. You need to isolate that first, and see whether you may have programs ruining along side your trading platforms, and how that affects the stability of your computer and the internet connection.
As for the execution and latency, again direct access to the exchange is great, but if the risk management verification is done in the USA then you are getting a slight delay.
It seems to me that you have stability issues and net issues, not latency at this point.

I had connectivity issues earlier today. I seem to have resolved those
Early last yearI had different connectivity issues. One of the steps done to troubleshoot those was to connect directly to US servers rather than through European servers
However, every time I did connect to US servers (it was in the region of once or twice) it was clear to me that the latency was greater than it is when I am connected to Europe with no issues
I just edited my quoted post to "you are getting a slight delay"....
If you find that the latency is better while connecting via a European server, then you answered your own question.
My first inclination is to connect directly via a server close to you.

Anyone know if CQG offers dollar index but not through ICE or any equivalent? seems to work well as a leading indicator for Gold movement.. or any other equivalent
