The short answer is yes.

The datafeed is more important than the broker.

How does the datafeed impact fill prices for market orders? And why is datafeed more important than broker? Wouldn't that depend on the type of trading you do?

Datafeed is what you actually trade and use for the execution of your instrument.
Low latency datafeed will give you better execution.
Naturally, having a stable platform, fast internet connectivity will assist you as well.

Thks to all who responded,
I also recd this response from Ninj'a support folks

Hello Kumaresh,

Thank you for your note.

The clearing firm does not have any impact on the price at which the order is filled. The fill is a result of the current bids/offers that are submitted by market participants.

For understanding the Discrepancies: Real-Time vs Backtest results you will need to review the following resource for a better understanding of how this is handled in NinjaTrader: link

NinjaTrader Version 7

Please let me know if you have any additional questions.
Sincerely,
Chip McEwen
