I might have used the wrong terminology in my question, I was looking at the ability to display the book for a symbol but for orders to be placed on its mini/micro. I can see this ability exists for GC, CL & 6E, but was hoping it might be possible to add other large/mini products?
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
As you noted this functionality exists in Bookmap, but it varies depending on the broker. So what you see under File>>List cross instruments trading pairs is what is available from that broker.
Could you please help compare the differences between dxFeed and Rithmic for trading futures with a Global subscription? How is the latency, full market depth, and cost if I were to trade GC and CL?
Is dxFeed recommended over Rithmic if I just need Bookmap for charting purposes?
Just a note, this is not our business. Bookmap is a software platform, not data nor broker services. I recommend you try Rithmic free for 2 weeks and also subscribe to dxfeed for one month for CME data only, for $29. See what one works best for you.
That said, both data feeds display full market depth -- this is a significant advantage over other data feeds. There are no issues with latency. I know Rithmic offers CME Market-by-Order data as well. This the future of transparent data for retail traders. I am not sure dxfeed offers that, you'll have to ask them.
It seems that dxFeed is oriented around equities, and rithmic is for Futures.
I did not see dxFeed specify CME, but suggest to use their site in case I am wrong.

I understand that data isn't your core business, but we all need data to use your services. It's a chicken and egg issue.
Since Rithmic offers CME Market-by-Order, I've signed up for a 14 day Rithmic trial but was unable to add it to my Free Digital Bookmap platform. Do I need it to access Replay Mode for US Futures? If not, how do I go about downloading data for Replay Mode so I can familiarize myself with the platform on Crude Oil?
The free Bookmap version only works with 1 digital currency in the live market. It also connects to a delayed dxfeed for US equities, and allows for a previously recorded futures file to be played in Replay Mode -- this file is included in the Bookmap download. This should give you a good sense of how Bookmap operates.
If you'd like to connect to live futures and/or US Equities data, then you will need to subscribe to Bookmap for at least a month. Cancel at any time, but you still get access for the amount of time you paid for. Note you will also need to provide the data.
