which platforms to use for HSI future orderflow trading?
I think there are similar posts in future.io but I couldn't find my answer from them so I decide to open a new thread
I trade HSI future using IB as my broker and NT as my charting platform, lately I want to look at DOM (tick data) to refine my entire/exits (I am a 5 minute bar chart trader) and IB does not provide real time tick data. Thus I have done some research and found 2 possible solutions to that:
1) open an AMP future account, get the tick data through CQG, execute trade using jigsaw daytradr and bridge jigsaw with NT8 for DOM and bar chart (not sure if it's possible, will come back to you guys when i know the answer!)
2) subscribe sierra chart their tick data, gave up NT and plug IB into sierra chart for trade execution then I would have DOM and bar chart
The problem I have now is I don't know whether sierra chart's DOM or jigsaw DOM is better for trading. Since I am so new to order flow trading, I really don't know which DOM platform is better, I came across orderflow trading from No BS day trade and a lot of people say that jigsaw is the best out there. but obviously subscribing sierra chart is more convenient to me.
Does any one know the difference between sierra chart's dom and jigsaw dom?? many thanks
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
been doing some research about data feed, since sierra chart does not provide HSI tick data to everyone (apparently they only provide HSI tick data to a particular company), so AMP combined with jigsaw would be the best option out there if one wanna use DOM trading for HSI
Beginning TWS v969 and API v973.04 supporting tick-by-tick data and NT8 from 8.0.16.3 they supporting unfiltered real-time data from Interactive Brokers.
then if you use sierrachart as your platform and connect to IB feed and order routing service via api, would the charts and DOM showing on sierra chart be accurate?
