1) You'll have to talk to RCG directly in order to get your account moved from Mirus.

2) You can use Continuum as a data feed as well as for order execution (requires NT .20).

3) If you own a Single Broker license of NT, you need to contact NT support in order to have them change your license from Zen-Fire to Continuum.

Thanks for your helpful answer.

HI,
I use IB for stocks and options. I also have the following configuration to trade futures

1) NT/Mirus/Zenfire/Dorman

After the meltdown of Zenfire I have signed up with Kinetick and I am awaiting my Continuum reply (which has been almost 5 days now). In the interm I will trade with

1a) NT/Kinetick/IB

when Continuum gets activated and without having to purchase a multi-broker NT license or transfer my funds from Dorman I should also be able to trade futures with:

1b) Mirus-trader(webased)/Continuum/Dorman

I would like comments on this post. If this doesn't make sense or I am missing something during this confusing time please let me know,
Thanks,

As far as I know Mirus Trader is also still unavailable due to the meltdown.

And my guess is that if they ever make MirusTrader to work with Continuum, it won't happen for months (but most likely never).
OTOH if they will get Rithmic, that should work with MirusTrader right away.

From what I saw the cost for Continuum is $10.00 a month with RCG. And I think you will just have to email Ninja and let them know you are going to be using Continuum.

So if I go from Mirus/RCG to using RCG directly I can use NinjaTrader v20/Continuum?

What's the cost for Continuum? Is anything else required (I have a lifetime NT license)?

yes, I have life license with Zen/Mirus too, if we change to Continuum, how to deal with this life license, add fee ?

I have been mailing and looking around.
At Cannontrading is Continuum free and is including Eurex at no charge.
I need eurex as i trade also the dax.

Just my 2 cents

Hi All

Continuum

Continuum Connect -> Learn More

looks like it uses CQG Trader API - the very old and unreliable technology

https://develop.cqg.com/?page=ContinuumConnect

in this case the Continuum brand is just the trick

imho

Let me clarify:

- There is no trick, I have publicly stated in several locations including this forum that the underlying technology for both NinjaTrader CQG and Continuum is identical
- I have further stated that the difference between the two is branding and marketing

That being said...

- We don't use the CQG Trader API
- We use a proprietary API co-developed between NinjaTrader/CQG that is exclusive for NinjaTrader
- It's solid and has been in use by thousands on thousands of users each and every day for many years

Please explain your statement " in this case the Continuum brand is just the trick?
Also, i know a lot of traders usin CQG datafeed. they are all very satified with it.

I dont take CQG as you have to pay supplement / mont for the eurex
