Hi Luke,
I'm looking for alternatives to TradeStation's futures data feed. In theory, OwnData looks like it could allow me to keep running things off TradeStation while using better quality data feed. So far, I have found very few online comments about users' experience with OwnData. What version of TradeStation did you use it with? Did you experience any data interruption issues (lag, freeze ups etc.)? Overall, how satisfied were you with OwnData? Thanks.
I think I have tried it too short to answer your question. Anyway I tried it with Tradestation 8.7 running IQfeed.
In my little experience I didn't saw data freeze, but don't know about lag, I did not compare it with others platforms.
Anyway it seems to me that owndata uses the same quote manager as multicharts, so I think on futures.io (formerly BMT) there are others with much more experience than me on both that may could reply to your issues.

I have used OnDemand Server from Rt Software for my TradeStation 2000i software for years. It is flawless and the support is superb. I have it on my desktop and laptop. eSignal is the data provider. Regards, Michael
Platform: market delta, multicharts, no matter how hard i try not too, i still use ninjatrader

owndata and zenfire
Has anyone tried to set up Tradestation with owndata using zenfire. I cant seem to get data for any symbols. The zenfire feed says it is active and online. I am using ES 09-10 as the symbol.
