I used NT for several years. I did a trial of Sierra when I decided to study market profile. had it not been for that, I might never have known that Sierra runs flawlessly in comparison to NT. It takes 50% or less computer resources to run Sierra, and now 9 months into it have yet to experience any crash, data lag, or any other issue that would occasionally occur in Ninja on the same machines.
The more I got into it, the more I liked it. Little things that are not necessarily debate worthy, but in a nutshell Sierra is much easier to customize.
So, to me the Sierra/Zen-Fire issue has only one direction if I had to choose; to find another data service and/or broker. I am going to see what happens as it gets closer, and have no pressing need to trade in the coming holiday week anyway, so maybe another week will give more info to move forward on.
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
The more deeper I look in the whole situation, the clearer it becomes that the mistake is on Mirus side. If they don´t fix it I will have to find new broker and datafeed. I will see how quickly they react tomorrow or the days after.
I am just wondering who had the "great idea" in Mirus to do all the changes during Christmass when everybody is on hollidays and can´t react.
I am not so sure Rithmic will be supported much longer at Sierra,
because of this statement from Sierra:
As far as Rithmic and Sierra Chart goes, if Rithmic does not want to continue to have Sierra Chart users, we will offer them to use the Sierra Chart market data feed instead of the Rithmic one in order to reduce bandwidth expenses. At this point, everything is OK. We just want to make sure there is not going to be a future problem by making sure that people who are using Rithmic are actually trading.
I'm in the same boat as everyone else here, with Mirrus for many years, used to use Ninja but SC provides things Ninja doesn't. Couldn't care less who's at fault, just need to move on.
I'm considering Global Futures with OEC data on Sierra Charts. Anyone have any experience with OEC data? (not interested in their charting platform) On the plus side OEC servers hold OCO orders so you don't have to worry about losing your internet connection in the middle of a trade. On the minus side, you can only have data for 5 instruments running at a time.
