I have been getting random broker disconnects with the "connected CQG" box showing up in red or orange.

Has anyone else with AMP/CQG been having similar problems the past days? Usually happens 1-2 times a week.. while trading live.

ISP is rock solid.

I'm about to kick their ass to the curb.

I had the same experience with CGQ (through AMP and Ninja) although it was with the demo servers which are not the same as the live servers (or so I was told).

The difference between CQG and my current data feed (Rithmic) is when CGQ went down it took a couple minutes to get back up (very frustrating minutes) and with Rithmic if it goes down it usually pops right back up within 10 seconds.

Thankfully, I can count on only one hand the amount of times in the past year a Rithmic disconnect lasted longer that 10-20 seconds.

You can also call you broker and platform provider and try to troubleshoot the problem with them....if you get the same old blame it on your ISP you can try a different ISP. After all that you might then consider switching data providers.

I'm clarifying this on all threads posted on this subject. I have nothing but great experiences with both AMP and NinjaTrader.

This seems to be a problem with the order placement server at CQG that deals with AMP and / or NT.

The absolute technicals are beyond my scope.

I would like to know what type of internet connection people are using that are experiencing this problem.

I am using a cable connection here locally 20m down 1m up. To Chicago 5m down 2m up. After reading the NT forums one thing concerned me.

A user there stated "AMP has $100 / month subscription available that's suppose to be a more direct route to the exchange, I have to wonder if they deliberately make a weak connection to force people into a paid connection?" Connection Problems AMP / [AUTOLINK]CQG[/AUTOLINK] - anyone - [AUTOLINK]NinjaTrader[/AUTOLINK] Support Forum

Has anyone contacted Amp and can confirm that they are pushing this? I have not received anything from them nor have I called, yet...
